2x Postwar Signed Photos of Erich Topp & Karl-Adolf Zenker
€60,00Original Postwar Signature on a Postwar Photo of Erich Topp. Fregattenkäpitan Erich Topp (02.07.1914 † 26.12.2005) earned the Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes on June 20, 1941 as Oberleutnant zur See und Kommandant of Uboot “U-552”, the Eichenlaub on April 11, 1942 as Kapitänleutnant und Kommandant of Uboot “U-552” and the Schwertern on August 17, 1942 as Kapitänleutnant und Kommandant of Uboot “U-552”.
Original Postwar Signature on a Postwar Photo of Karl-Adolf Zenker. Admiral Karl-Adolf Zenker (19 July 1907, Goslar † 27 October 1998, Bonn) was a German naval officer who served in both the Kriegsmarine during World War II and the Bundesmarine of postwar West Germany, where he rose to the rank of Admiral. He is best remembered as Inspector of the Navy (Inspekteur der Marine), the highest-ranking officer of the Bundesmarine.
Both A5 Size format.
Hermann Büchting – Schnellboot S-27
€35,00A fine postwar portrait photograph, personally signed by Hermann Büchting (14 March 1916 – 27 June 1992), one of the notable commanders of the Kriegsmarine’s fast-attack craft arm (Schnellbootwaffe). His signature is clear, bold, and fully authentic—an excellent example for collectors of S-Boot and Knight’s Cross memorabilia.
Hermann Büchting earned the Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes on 22 April 1943 as Kapitänleutnant and commander of the Schnellboot “S-27”, 1. Schnellbootsflottille.
During his tenure, Büchting distinguished himself in the highly dangerous naval warfare of the English Channel and North Sea, where the Schnellboot forces conducted precision night raids, convoy attacks, and mine-laying operations against heavily defended Allied shipping. His award recognized repeated displays of leadership, tactical skill, and personal bravery under fire.
After the war Büchting lived a private life, making his signature considerably scarcer than those of many other Knight’s Cross holders. Postwar-signed photographs of S-Boot commanders—especially in clean, undamaged condition—are increasingly difficult to obtain.
Collector’s Note
This is an excellent opportunity to acquire a genuine postwar signature of a Schnellboot Knight’s Cross recipient, ideal for framed display or integration into an advanced Kriegsmarine autograph collection. A desirable and historically significant piece from one of the Schnellbootwaffe’s decorated commanders.
Rolf Thomsen – Kommandant of “U-1202” (Eichenlaub)
€45,00A desirable postwar signed portrait of Rolf Thomsen—one of the most decorated U-boat commanders of the late war and a highly respected officer who later rose to the rank of Flottillenadmiral in the Bundesmarine. The photograph is clean, well-preserved, and boldly autographed by Thomsen, making it a fine example for signature collectors, U-boat historians, and Knight’s Cross specialists.
Rolf Thomsen (1915–2003)
Thomsen began his naval career as an aviator, flying long-range reconnaissance missions from 1939 to 1943 before transferring to the U-boat arm in early 1944. On 27 January 1944, he commissioned U-1202, a Type VIIC submarine with which he conducted two aggressive North Atlantic patrols.
During these operations, Thomsen reported attacks on a destroyer, multiple corvettes, six merchant vessels, and an escort carrier. The sinking of the British freighter Dan Beard was later confirmed by Allied records. For these actions, he received:
-
Knight’s Cross of the Iron Cross – 4 January 1945
-
Oak Leaves – 29 April 1945
Thomsen’s decorations reflect his unusual dual-service career:
Awards & Decorations
-
Iron Cross 2nd Class (25 Nov. 1939)
-
Iron Cross 1st Class (17 May 1940)
-
Wound Badge in Black (Aug. 1940)
-
Luftwaffe Front Flying Clasp for Reconnaissance Pilots (Silver & Gold)
-
German Cross in Gold (14 Oct. 1943)
-
U-Boat War Badge (1939)
-
U-Boat Front Clasp in Bronze (27 Jan. 1945)
-
Knight’s Cross with Oak Leaves for U-1202 operations
After the war, Thomsen joined the newly established Bundesmarine in 1955, eventually serving as Flotilla Admiral from 1966.
Collector’s Note
Signed photographs of Rolf Thomsen remain sought-after due to his dual combat career, high decorations, and postwar prominence. This example, with a clear postwar autograph, is an excellent acquisition for any collection focused on U-boat warfare, the Knight’s Cross, or Bundesmarine command figures.

€40,00Original Postwar Signature on a Postwar Photo of Walther Gerhold
Schreiber-Obergefreiter Walther Gerhold (8 June 1921 – 2 March 2013) was a Kriegsmarine sailor and recipient of the Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes for his daring action as a one-man torpedo operator with the Kleinkampfverbände.
Award and Citation
-
Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes – 6 July 1944, as Schreiber-Obergefreiter und Einmanntorpedofahrer with Kleinkampf-Flottille 361.
-
Citation:
“The 23-year-old Schreiberobergefreiter Walter Gerhold, from Sauerland, is the first lone fighter from the Kriegsmarine to be awarded the Knight’s Cross for sinking a British cruiser of the Aurora-class under the most difficult conditions. Commanding his human torpedo, Gerhold passed six British destroyers at close range, broke through their security ring, and attacked a cruiser lying behind it with a skillful and calculated approach. The ship sank following a major boiler explosion. For his bravery before the enemy, Gerhold was also promoted to Schreibermaat.”

Condition: Very good, clear autograph
Collector’s Note
Walther Gerhold holds a special place in Kriegsmarine history as the first one-man torpedo operator to be decorated with the Knight’s Cross. His bold solo mission against a heavily defended Royal Navy formation showcases the extreme risks undertaken by the Kleinkampfverbände (small battle units). Autographs from Gerhold are scarce, making this postcard an excellent addition for collectors of Kriegsmarine and naval special forces memorabilia.

Collector’s Note
Klaus Feldt’s career represents the elite echelon of Schnellboot commanders, men whose daring raids earned them top decorations. His combination of the Ritterkreuz and Eichenlaub places him among the Kriegsmarine’s most successful fast-attack leaders. Signed items from Schnellboot officers are notably scarcer than those of U-boat commanders, making this a particularly desirable piece.
