Original Postwar Signature on a Postwar Photo of Siegfried Schmoll. Leutnant Siegfried Schmoll (18.05.1915 † 17.05.1991) earned the Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes on June 9, 1944 as Leutnant der Reserve und Ordonnanzoffizier of the Grenadier-Regiment 217 of the 57. Infanterie-Division.
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.
