    Hitler, Himmler and Dietrich signature on postcard. Opinions please

    Hello Friends.

    I need your opinion on this nice find i made.
    Its a nice postcard i got from an old lady here in Stuttgart after i bought some photos from her. She gave it to me for free.

    First i had a short look on the postcard and thought "Oh man that postcard would had lokked nice but its cut" and i wanted to throw it away.
    At home i looked at her closer and saw the signatures of hitler and himmler with ink on this postcard.

    I have no doubt that they are real because the lady gave it to me for free. But i would like to hear the experts opinions anyway

    What value does this postcard have? I think i will sell it but i have no clue what value signatures have.

    The scans:

          I believe your story, but IMO it is very hard to determine if a signature on a postcard is real or not. It is relative easy for a faker (after some of practicing) to fake a signature.

          You only have the card and the signature, so there is nothing you can compare it with. I myself buy never cards with signatures, because after so many years (with a lot of fakes) one can not tell if it's real or not.

          Very nice story, but when you sell it, you have to find someone who believes the story.

          With a document, there are more things, with which you can compare it (signature, stamp(s), print, date, unit etc.).

          Best regards,
          Erich

            Thanks Erich. Do you know if Detlev Niemann or any other dealer makes certificates of authenticity about signatures?

              Hallo Sven,

              That I do not know. I won't say your card is good or bad, I simply don't know. Perhaps you could take a look on one of the dealers sites.

              Greetings,
              Erich

                I would suggest contacting a manuscript specialist. Look for a Society in the Manuscript/autograph field. Such Society can direct you to reputable, perhaps certified individuals who can examine and render an informed opinion. For something like this, I personally would avoid militaria dealers.

                Good luck.

                  Thank you ramon, that is a good idea.
                  I will try to find a specialist that is not too expensive.

                    The AH signature doesn't match any original I've seen or have in any reference--imo that one is very questionable.

                      Sven,
                      Save your money. They are all forgeries. The postcard is worthless.
                      Max.

                        Ok thank you guys.
                        I would have bet any sum that this is real

                        But once again reminds me to believe nothing people are telling even if they are old and nice

                        I would like to know who faked the signatures and why
