Dossier: The Secret History of Armand Hammer By Edward Jay Epstein; Random House/US
This investigative book exposes the life of Armand Hammer -- hailed during his lifetime as a successful businessman and philanthropist -- for what it was: a myth, nurtured and embellished for nearly 70 years. In 1922, Lenin wrote a secret letter to Stalin, designating Hammer as their official "path" to the resources of American capitalism. From then until his death in 1990, Hammer was indeed a Soviet agent.— Preceding

There's a discussion at http://www.volokh.com/posts/1177040902.shtml that mentions inaccuracies in the article, including that:
We don't have direct sources for the first two (unless it's in Dossier, which someone else will have to check), but we don't have sources for the parts of the article that contradict them either.

There is no such thing as "Lenin's Order of Friendship of People", there are
Lenin Order and
Order of Friendship of Peoples; Hammer was awarded the latter. Corrected in the article.

In Alexander Barmine's book "One Who Survived" it was Dr. Julius Hammer who received the Soviet stationary concession and Barmine was in a position to know since he was in charge of the trading company that bought the supplies from Hammer's factories. It appears that Armand Hammer later told journalists that he ran the Soviet concession and deals when in fact it was his father, Julius, who did so. Barmine refers to Julius Hammer as "Dr. Hammer" in his book so apparently Armand was imitating his father with this title as well.

I remember from a report I did about 1982, on the year 1971, that during this cold war period, it was claimed that Armand Hammer died in 1971, as did Louis Armstrong. Does anyone have a reference book showing this data, as all current data shows revisions, as in The Summer of Love article on wikipedia calling it 1967 only, and not 1969, or even into 1969 (until it was updated).

It was still deep in the cold war era, about the times of COINTELPRO, hyperinflation from the 1960's technology economy bust and housing market home price inflation, and the cuban missile crisis was recent as with the Kennedy Assassination. Propaganda cannot be ruled out to Manufacture Consent, since Armand Hammer was a russian of Baking Soda and other fame.

The report was made within united states, california, los angeles county, LAUSD, Diamond Bar, Grade School infrastructure which is located next to the Diamond Bar oil fields with (now decomissioned) NIKE missile site protection, so cold war propaganda to Manufacture Consent may very likely apply to this historical data reference, now missing in records.

I retitled the section - to draw maximum attention to the issue. The section has no content - none whatsoever - addressing the original section title. I hope for productive response to this - to wit, deletion or, if possible, applicable refill. JTGILLICK ( talk) 01:22, 24 September 2012 (UTC)
This section should be expanded or have its name changed. There is nothing in the this section that even hints at the Romanov treasure except that it questions his motivations for going to Russia/Soviet Union. The reader is required to make some pretty broad assumptions in order to make a connection.

What's the link with Cyrus Eaton? There's no mention of Armand Hammer in that article, or Cyrus Eton in this one.

Seems a glaring omission to leave out of this article exactly what he was doing during all of WWII. Starhistory22 ( talk) 06:45, 14 November 2018 (UTC)
Is there an article on Julius Hammer somewhere? It seems like a separate article on him is warranted based on the amount of information in this article on him. Nogburt ( talk) 22:21, 31 May 2023 (UTC)
