Hi Nick,

Could we see the whole document? It looks like a promotion document...

Dear Nick,

The countersignature on the lower left appears to be that of General Field Marshal Wilhelm Keitel. Will await further photos.

are you sure its not a fasimilie hitler autograph? seems the other one has faded into the paper, the hitler one hasnt, just a thought

[Br. James]

It appears to be a list of field promotions proposed by Keitel. The Seal of State looks good to me. Phil does have a point, though I don't know how Hitler's printed signature would have gotten onto what looks like an originally-blank sheet of paper? We still haven't seen the entire page... I hope Max History can give us his thoughts on this piece.

This is the usual list from a promotions/postings order issued by Hitler. They were all ink signed by Hitler and ink countersigned by a member of the Oberkommando der Wehrmacht. As far as I know, they never bore printed/facsimile signatures. They were individually held in blue file folders in the Hauptarchiv. All these documents are extremely collectable and those with senior officers or famous officers more so. A very nice piece.

Interesting document indeed. Here is an authentic example of both AH and Keitel sigs from 1942.
