Original Postwar Signature on a Postwar Photo of Eduard Isken. Oberfeldwebel Eduard Isken (15.04.1918 † 07.01.1997) earned the Ritterkreuz on January 14, 1945 as Oberfeldwebel und Flugzeugführer of a 13. Staffel/Jagdgeschwader 53.
Awarded for his wartime successes. By the end of the conflict these amounted to 56 aerial victories (including 16 in the East and 17 four-engined bombers) achieved over the course of 946 sorties.
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.
