Hi Magnus,

Ernst Barkmann of SS-Pz.Regt. 2 was never associated with Michael Wittmann that I know of, but he must have signed thousands of photos post-war, so it should be relatively easy to see if the autograph you have looks like examples of his.

The signature on the photo in that thread looks like the ones I have seen and 3-4 signed Ernst Barkmann photos I have owned. I'm certainly no handwriting expert but he signed so many I wouldn't have any reason to think this wasn't his signature. All post-war, of course; I think it would be highly unlikely that's an actual war time photo with war time signature.

My 2 cents.

I have seen some wartime sigantures of him, and they are totally different than the usual postwar ones.
