Original Postwar Signature on a Postwar Photo of Heinz Macher. SS-Sturmbannführer Heinz Macher (31.12.1919 † 21.12.2001) earned the Ritterkreuz on April 3, 1943 as SS-Untersturmführer und Kompanieführer of the 16. Kompanie/ SS-Panzer-Grenadier-Regiment 3 “Deutschland” and the Eichenlaub on August 19, 1944 as SS-Obersturmführer und Kompaniechef of the 16.

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.
