After the Hindenburg burst into flame on May 6, 1937, one of the firefighters who was helping clean up the area after the disaster noticed six bottles of Lowenbrau beer and a pitcher that had survived the disaster. He then buried his treasure and went back for it later.
Now one of these bottles of beer and the pitcher are going up for auction this Saturday. If the bottle of beer reaches its expected $8,337 (£5,000) sell price, then it will become the most expensive ever purchased.
