Otto Günsche – Adolf Hitler’s Personal Adjutant (WIA 20 July Plot, Führerbunker)
€220,00Original Postwar Signature on a Postwar Photo of Otto Günsche. SS-Sturmbannführer Otto Günsche (24.09.1917 † 02.10.2003) earned the Verwundetenabzeichen “20. Juli 1944” in Schwarz and was a member of the Leibstandarte-SS Adolf Hitler before he became Adolf Hitler’s personal adjutant. Condition as seen. Postcardsize.
With the end of Nazi Germany imminent, Günsche was tasked by Hitler on 30 April 1945 with ensuring the cremation of his body after his death. That afternoon, he stood guard outside the room in the Führerbunker where Hitler and Eva Braun committed suicide. After waiting a short time, Hitler’s valet, Heinz Linge, opened the study door with Martin Bormann at his side. The two men entered the study with Günsche right behind them. Günsche then left the study and announced that Hitler was dead to a group in the briefing room, which included Joseph Goebbels, General Hans Krebs, and General Wilhelm Burgdorf. Günsche had the table and chairs in the study moved out of the way and blankets were laid out on the floor. Hitler and Braun’s lifeless bodies were then wrapped in blankets. In accordance with Hitler’s prior written and verbal instructions, his and Braun’s bodies were carried up the stairs and through the bunker’s emergency exit to the garden behind the Reich Chancellery to be burned. Having ensured that the corpses were burnt using petrol supplied by Hitler’s chauffeur Erich Kempka, Günsche later left the Führerbunker after midnight on 1 May. On 2 May 1945, Günsche was taken prisoner by Soviet Red Army troops that were encircling the city and flown to Moscow for sharp interrogation by the NKVD.

€0,01Original Postwar Signature on a Postwar Photo of Fritz Langanke.

Kompanie/ SS-Panzer-Regiment 2 of the 2. SS-Panzer-Division “Das Reich“. Condition as seen. Postcardsize.
Knight’s Cross: “SS-Standartenoberjunker Langanke, Zugführer in the II./SS-Pz.Rgt. 2, was separated from his Abteilung along with 3 Panthers on the 28.07.1944. In this time he made the independent decision to rally 300 Heer Grenadiers and launch a breakout attempt on the night of the 29./30.07.1944.

RARE KIA Wehrpass – Panzer-Kompanie 319 (Funklenk) (KIA Liege, Belgium 1944!)
€425,00Original Wehrpass of a Schütze Paul Treuse (born 1926), who during the war served with the Panzer-Kompanie 319 (Funklenk) and was only there 2 weeks before he was Killed in Action on September 8, 1944 in Lüttich (Liege/Luik), Belgium. He’s buried inAachen, Waldfriedhof: Block 21d Grab 60.
The Panzer-Kompanie 319 (Funklenk) is rare and scarce unit to find!
-
The unit named Panzer-Kompanie (Funklenk) 319 was a Funklenk (radio-control / remote-control) tank company — i.e., a specialist unit whose role was to operate radio-steered control tanks and remote demolition vehicles. Funklenk companies typically controlled vehicles such as the heavy Borgward IV demolition carrier and the smaller tracked “Goliath” charge, using armored control tanks alongside them.
What “Funklenk” companies were and what they were equipped with
-
Role: Funklenk (Funklenkpanzer / Panzer-Kompanie (Fkl)) units were experimental/specialist formations created to operate radio-steered demolition vehicles and remote demolition charges at the front line. Control tanks (often armoured assault tanks or heavy tanks if available) carried the radio equipment and a crew that remotely drove demolition carriers into close targets, then withdrew them or detonated them.
-
Typical remote demolition vehicles:
-
Borgward IV (B IV) — a large, tracked, remote-controlled demolition carrier capable of carrying a heavy explosive load; commonly paired with control tanks from Funklenk companies.
-
Goliath (Sd.Kfz. 302 / 303) — a much smaller tracked remote-control mine used earlier and in many demolition detachments (often used alongside Borgward vehicles or where smaller charges sufficed).
-
-
Typical control vehicles: depending on availability Funklenk control vehicles could be:
-
StuG III / StuG variants (commonly used as control vehicles in several Funklenk companies),
-
Panzer IV or even Tiger tanks in some Funklenk companies where heavy radio equipment and range were required — historical examples exist of Funklenk companies equipped or at least provided with Tigers in 1944 (this varied by company and time).

Imperial German WWI Militärpaß – Munitions-Kolonne (Verdun, Ypern.. Earned EK2)
€45,00Offered is an original Imperial German Militärpaß issued to Hugo Lansberg, a veteran whose documented service spans the Kaiserreich, the entirety of the First World War, and the immediate postwar period.
Most notably, Lansberg was awarded the Eisernes Kreuz 2. Klasse on 5 May 1917, earned while serving with the light ammunition column—an uncommon and highly desirable detail, as EK2 awards to logistical and support units reflect service under particularly dangerous conditions rather than ceremonial recognition.
Following the armistice, his Militärpaß records continued service from 13 January 1919 with Feldartillerie-Regiment 46, placing him among the transitional forces during the turbulent postwar period.
A highly attractive Militärpaß with excellent historical depth, combining cavalry origins, frontline Western Front service, an Iron Cross award, and postwar continuity. An outstanding piece for collectors of Imperial German documents, EK recipients, or Western Front veterans.
