Postcard with Greeting sent by Adolf Hitler and Important Party Leaders (Item AHSIG 3-2; AH 31-2; PERS 7-7)
|
DESCRIPTION: This picture postcard was sent to Frau Rust, an early secretary for the NSDAP. It’s postmarked from Nuremberg on 28 July 1931, and is written in pencil and conveys the heartfelt greetings from the following:
Adolf Hitler. A personal greeting and an early signature
Julius Streicher. Gauleiter of Franconia; he was a delegate to the Reichstag from Thuringen
Dr. Herbert Albrecht. A very early party member from May 1923
Julius Schaub. One of Hitler’s main adjutants; he was a recipient of the Golden NSDAP Party Badge number 81
The front of the card is a lithograph depicting Die Burg (Castle) im Westen. Additionally, there is a postcard provenance dated 27 July 1976. (Coincidentally, it was sent one day before the postcard was sent 45 years earlier!) Ben E. Swearingen, of Lewisville, Texas, who was long-time collector and ultracompetent authority on Third Reich memorabilia, delivered the provenance to Mr. Frank Gish, another long-time collector from Tustin, California. It's interesting to note that Swearingen identified all the "difficult" signatures on the card, yet neglected to mention Hitler's! We suppose he took that one for granted! For those not familiar with Dr. Herbert Albrecht, he was one of the earliest supporters of Hitler and after the Machtergreifung he became a Gauleiter and a member the Reichstag. Earlier, he was a member of the famed Deutschvolkischer Schutz und Trutzbund (German Nationalist Protection and Defiance Federation). This is a stunning collection of signatures of early members of the Nazi Party, predating Hitler's meteoric rise to power.

Important Hitler Promotional Document (Item AHSIG 3-3)
|
| DESCRIPTION: This is the document advancing Baron von Funck of the General Staff of the IV Army Corps, was a named attaché to the seat of the national government in Spain, effective 30 November 1936. Because of this, he is to wear the uniform of the German General Staff. Retiring at the same time from his post as military attaché to the German embassy in Madrid would be Lt. Gen. Kühlenthal, who was also military attaché to the German embassies in Paris and Madrid and to the German Mission Lisbon in Paris. This is signed in hand by ADOLF HITLER, the Führer and Chancellor of the Reich. Below this is a signature of the War Minister of the Reich and Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces von Blomberg. Across from this it says: “Commander of the Army, F.A. Schmundt.” Then “For the War Ministry of the Reich Az.21 c P A / G Z (I) Gen. St d H.” With this document there is a rough translation by the Dept. of the Army Military Institute at Carlisle Barracks, Pennsylvania. It’s a letter from the above to a Mr. Steven Tonar. This institute was in reply to Mr. Tonar’s request. It seems he was asking for information on a Gen. Schmundt, whose name is highlighted at the bottom of the translation as it appears below. Above Blomberg’s signature is the official Reich’s seal embossed with the National Eagle and the words “Der Reichskriegsminister . . .” (“Reich’s Minister of War and Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces”). These promotions were hand signed by the Führer and Blomberg and are significant to Third Reich history and are very important indeed. The importance of these documents cannot be underestimated. The price is commensurate with their great importance.

Promotion Document to a Major in the Luftwaffe Personally signed by Werner Blomberg, Head of the Wehrmacht (Armed Forces); Hermann Göring of the Luftwaffe; and the Führer, himself, Adolf Hitler (Item AHSIG 3-4)
|
DESCRIPTION: This is possibly the finest, highly signed document we have ever occasioned across. It came out of a famous collection and is in immaculate condition. The two parts of it are magnificently framed inclusive of special museum glass. The overall gorgeous frame is measured at 33 x 22 inches and each document is 11 x 8 inches and all are in mint condition. The embossed seal with the German National Eagle is there. The promotion is for a Luftwaffe major, Eckart Krahmer, who is being promoted to lieutenant colonel with a seniority of rank as of 1 October 1936. The expectation and conscientious fulfilment and obligations are clearly shown on a separately framed printed translation clearly centered within the frame. The document is signed by Werner von Blomberg, as superior army official plus Hermann Göring, as superior head of the air force (Luftwaffe) and, of course, the Führer, himself. Seldom do we ever find a document as fine and historically important as this one and in this condition. Presumably, you will find no finer.

Document Signed by Hitler Congratulating a Couple on their 50th Wedding Anniversary (Item AHSIG 3-5)
|
| DESCRIPTION: Here is a beautifully executed document with Hitler congratulating a couple on their 50th wedding anniversary. A letter accompanies it. The document reads: “I send you warmest congratulations of the rare celebration of your Golden Anniversary. I hope and wish that you may have a long and undisturbed life surrounded by your family.” The accompanying letter is from the Minister of State and Head of the Presidential Office of the Führer and Chancellor and reads: “Sending you the enclosed certificate of honor on account of your Golden Anniversary. At the same time, the Führer and Reichskanzler grants you an honorary gift at 50, which will be sent to you by post.” Signed Paul Hellwig. Ironically, it was sent on Hitler’s birthday, April 20, and was written in 1940. Both documents are in excellent condition the colors still very vibrant on the greeting itself and the large “50” is raised in golden numbers. Indeed, this is a very rare document in itself as we are used to seeing Hitler signatures on mainly military or business matters, but here is a very personal greeting to a couple who were obviously very special to him.
