第二次世界大战时期著名的“辛德勒名单”私人珍藏版近日在一家名为Momentsintime.com的网站标价150万英镑出售,卖家表示此次拍卖采取先到先得的方式交易,不会进行竞价。这份名单是德国商人奥斯卡•辛德勒和他的得力助手在1945年4月18日编写整理的,名单上记录着801名犹太人的姓名和出生日期。辛德勒通过在自己的工厂雇佣大量犹太人的方式帮助1200名犹太人免遭纳粹杀害。据称,完整的“辛德勒名单”一共有七份,其中有两份下落不明。除了此次出售的这份名单外,另有四份分别被保存在美国、德国和以色列的博物馆内。美国知名导演史蒂文•斯皮尔伯格1993年把辛德勒保护犹太人的事迹拍成电影《辛德勒名单》,获得包括最佳导演、最佳影片在内的七项奥斯卡奖。

One of the original versions of the Schindler's List is being put on sale for £1.5million.

The famous Schindler's List of Jews saved from the Nazi Holocaust during the World War Two is being offered up for private sale for £1.5 million.

The list of 801 Jewish men, women and children, which belongs to the family of Oskar Schindler's right-hand man, Itzhak Stern, is one of only five known to exist.

Being sold through the website Momentsintime.com, the old and tattered manuscript dated from the 18/04/1945, is being handled on a first come first served basis.

The Stern family, whose patriarch, Itzhak was played by Ben Kingsley in the Oscar winning Spielberg epic 'Schindler's List', have been in negotiation with Momentsintime.com for over two years.

'There are five known examples of Schindler's List preserved in the world today,' said a spokesperson for Momentsintime.com.

'This is one out of a reputed list of seven made by in total Oskar Schindler.

'Two are in the hands of Israeli Holocaust Museum's, one is in Koblenz in Germany and the other is in the Holocaust Museum in Washington D.C.

'The other two are unaccounted for.'

The plain, typed names and birthdates conceal the vast historical importance and personal danger which Oskar Schindler himself went through to rescue the condemned Jews.

Schindler owned a factory in Krakow, Poland, during World War Two and relied on Jewish labor to run the plant.

He became distressed at the German treatment of Jews after witnessing a 1942 raid on a Jewish ghetto and used his position in the Nazi party to persuade officials that his workers were vital to the war effort and saved them from gas chambers.

He is credited with saving 1,200 Jews during the war.

His tale was immortalized in the seven-time Oscar winning film, 'Schindler's List,' starring Liam Neeson.

'This has been a two-year negotiation for the rights to represent this list,' said Momentsintime.com.

'We are happy to offer one of the most unique documents of World War Two that currently exists in private hands.

'We know from the Stern family that this is the penultimate list that Schindler wrote and is an incredible piece of memorabilia.

'We hope that a patron will purchase this and offer it to an important museum.'
