Original Postwar Signature on a Postwar Photo of Karl-Friedrich Merten. Kapitän zur See Karl-Friedrich Merten (15.08.1905 † 02.05.1993) earned the Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes on June 13, 1942 as Korvettenkapitän und Kommandant of U-boot “U-68” and the Eichenlaub on November 16, 1942 as Korvettenkapitän und Kommandant of U-boot “U-68” of the 2. Unterseebootflottille. Measuring 7,3×10,3cm.
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.
