Original Postwar Signature on a Postwar Photo of Gerhard Mokros. Oberst Gerhard Mokros (18.03.1909 in Dresden † 03.04.1996 in Sonthofen) earned the Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes on November 18, 1942 as Leutnant und Führer of the 7. Kompanie/ Infanterie-Regiment 331 of the 167. Infanterie-Division and the Eichenlaub on May 5, 1945 as Oberst und Kommandeur of the Grenadier-Regiment 423 of the 212. Volksgrenadier-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.

Information:
The death card may have a different color than the scan shows. The scan seem to make the death cards more white than they are.
The "Sterbekartei" (Card from Ancestry that shows the unit, fate..) provided here is only a digital copy! Not part of the original sale.
