Original Postwar Signature on a Postwar Photo of Stephan “Steff” Litjens. Oberfeldwebel Stephan Litjens (13.10.1913 † 25.02.2002) earned the Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes on June 21, 1943 as Oberfeldwebel und Flugzeugführer in the 4. Staffel/ Jagdgeschwader 53 “Pik As” (awarded after 31 aerial victories).
Provenance: This signature comes from one of the largest postwar signature collection I’ve ever commissioned. This collection was started by a Waffen-SS Veteran, Werner H., in the 1950’s until he passed away.
