              Piet,
              I can not remember where i read that after the war the economy was bad so Rudel sold his KC document and later turns up in the auction house.

                That I strongly doubt!
                But he sold some of the diamonds from one of his decorations (he kept it as a secret which decoration), but later had them reattached. I dare to say, that he would never sell that Mappe!

                  The normal RK Mappe from Rudel was sold in a english auction house.
