          I greatly respect the opinions of the others here, but I'd like to see better pics/closeups. I don't see the crossovers normally associated with a hand-signed document.

          I'm not saying the others here are wrong - I'd just prefer to see better proof.

            I would say that the signature is the stamped variety, not hand signed.

              Are you sure, after enlarging the photo it looks like some strokes crosses each other.

                I can't see any cross-overs as I'd expect to see them on a hand signed signature but in places where you would expect such cross-overs the ink has 'collected' from the placing or lifting of the stamp so it looks darker in those areas and lighter in others.

                  I see crossovers on the 2 "f'" s.

                  Hand signed.

                          I think you are just going to have to accept that opinions are mixed and it is up to you to decide. I'm afraid the second image doesn't help at all as it is worse than the first. Are you not able to scan it?

                          Here is an example of Niehoff's hand signed signature (taken from http://www.dokumentenforum.de/thread...ilight=Niehoff ) - see how more 'fluid' the ink flow looks compared to the one above which I still think is a stamped version.

                              Hand signed for sure.

                              Generally speaking stamped sigs at the divisional commander level are the exception rather than the rule.
