Original Postwar (?) Stamp on a Wartime Photo of Hugo-Gottfried Kraas. SS-Brigadeführer Hugo-Gottfried Kraas (25.01.1911 † 20.02.1980) earned the Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes on March 28, 1943 as SS-Sturmbannführer und Kommandeur of the I. Bataillon/ SS-Panzergrenadier-Regiment 2 “LSSAH” and the Eichenlaub on January 24, 1944 as SS-Obersturmbannführer und Kommandeur of the SS-Panzergrenadier-Regiment 2 “LSSAH” of the 1.

Provenance: This signature comes from one of the largest postwar (incl. wartime) 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.
