    New member, new collection

    Hello Everyone,
    I just found this web site while trying to get information on my recently acquired collection. I am still looking for translators because the documents were written in different languages. One thing I know is that the recipient of these documents and awards, Nicolaus Vegh, was a high ranking diplomat with military background and the collection seems to cover his carrier.
    One of his awards, Verdienstkreuz des Ordens vom Deutschen Adler mit dem Stern (signed by Hitler, Ribbentrop and Meissner), is related to the subjects of this web site, so please take a look at the photos of my collection.
    (I don't show all the pages only the most interesting awards.)
    Please help me out with identifying the signatures on the other awards. They all seem to be authentic. (I know, one signature is from Mussolini.)
    Also, please let me know where would I be able to find out the value of my collection.
    I do appreciate your input.

    Original birth certificate of Nicolaus Vegh a.k.a. Vegh Miklos (in Hungarian):


    Picture of his father, Arthur Vegh:


    One of his first promotions (1915):


    Loose documents of promotions from different European capitols (Budapest, Vienna, Rome, Paris, Bucharest, Prague, Madrid):


    French award:


    Italian award (signed by Mussolini):


    Spanish award (Order of Carlos III) with official notice in Hungarian:


    Serbian award (by King Peter II):
    /it's a single page but I had to take two separate photographs/



    German award (by Hitler, Ribbentrop and Meissner):


    Booklet for the German award ceremony (...???):

    I can't speak to the originality of the various components but it looks like you have a very nice diplomatic grouping here. It would be neat to collect the various awards to display with the documents. Can't speak to value either.

        On "Santi Maurizio e Lazzaro certificate" the signature is not
        Benito Mussolini.
        Ciao, Luca

          You're correct.
          I just looked up Mussolini's signature on the Internet and found this image:



          The signature on my document is from a different person (I thought the name was Mussolini...):



          I believe, the first signature (Il Primo Segretarios di S.M.) is from Paolo Thaon di Revel (Admiral).



          Can somebody tell me tell me who the second person is (Il Direttore Capo della Div. I)?

            Would somebody please give me an idea about the value of the German award with three signatures (Hitler, Ribbentrop, Meissner).
            Thank you.

              A very nice and rare document which I wanted to add to my collection.

              As this document has been up for sale at militaria321 for some weeks I asked the seller about a week ago for better scans of Hitlers signature.
              Unfortunately Cassiopea never responded to my question.

              Does someone have an opinion regarding the signature(s)? Original or printed faksimiles?

              Regards

                  The signatures of Hitler and Ribbentrop are printed and Meissner's autograph
