A series of watercolours believed to have been painted by Adolf Hitler are to be sold by a Cornish auction house.
The 21 watercolours and sketches were discovered in a battered suitcase in a Belgian attic, close to where Hitler served during the First World War.
Jefferys Auctioneers said steps were taken to prove their authenticity without success.
The paintings, which are similar to other works by Hitler, are expected to fetch up to £3,000 on 26 September.
