Führerschein Dutch person. Need help.

[chillbert]

Hello i bought this Führerschein a while ago. The handwriting is difficult to read. On the front page someone has written ss i think this is done after the war. The person is a Dutch man from Hardenberg. I hope someone can give me more information and translate this Führerschein for me. Thanks.

Its a Führerschein for Klasse III, which is for cars and small trucks (like Opel Blitz).
Its a Zweitschrift, so he got this one because his previous one got lost/damaged.
He got it in 1940.
I think the SS mark is indeed fake, this is a civilian document. And if it would have been SS, then the marking should be on a differend place.
But i must say that i´ve never seen a führerschein being issued to a Dutch guy before.

A bit hard to read, what do the round stamps say?

[chillbert]

I think something like " landrat des kreftes ???? bentheim".

Hi,

I think this: Landrat des Kreises Grafschaft Bentheim

[chillbert]

"District Administrator for the County of Bentheim". Okay this person lives in Holland about 80 km of the place bentheim in Germany where the stamps are from. But is there a way to find out what his relationship was with the Germans.

Best regards Wilbert.

I think it's a Zweitschrift because he had a driving license from Holland since 16.2.40 . And I also think he came to Germany and got this german license. A lot of people from the Netherlands came to Germany because of marriage. Hardenberg is a town next to the german frontier. And the county of Bentheim is the hole area on the other side of this frontier. And couples Germany / Netherland are not unusual here.
