Original Wartime Signature on a Postcard of Günther "Franzl" Lützow. Oberst Günther Lützow (04.09.1912 † 24.04.1945) earned the Ritterkreuz on September 28, 1940, the Eichenlaub on July 20, 1941 & the Schwertern on October 11, 1941 as Major und Kommodore of the Jagdgeschwader 3. Good condition. Edges have been cut.
In April 1945, he joined Galland's Jagdverband 44 (JV 44—44th Fighter Detachment). He was reported missing in action flying the Me 262 on 24 April 1945 while attempting to intercept a U.S. Army Air Forces B-26 Marauder raid near Donauwörth. His body was never recovered.
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.
