The Real Schindler's List Auctioned On eBay! for starting bid of $3 million

Original Schindler's List to be sold on eBay for $3 million ...

Schindler's List became a household name in 1993 when Steven Spielberg directed the Academy Award-winning classic movie of the same name.

The German businessman became a Nazi and operated enamel factories in Poland, producing pots and pans using forced Jewish laborers during World War II.

In order to save 1,200 prisoners, Schindler opened an armaments factory in Brunnlitz, present-day Czech Republic, to convince his superiors Jews were vital to the work production.

The transfer of these workers was drawn up on multiple lists, collectively known as "Schindler's List," according to Steven Luckert, curator of permanent exhibitions at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum.
