Please, could anybody help me identifying the signature on this document? It is familiar to me, but I cannot tell for sure who's the person who wrote it. Any important nazi personality? I am really intrigued. Thanks in advance!

It could be "Link" (or "Rink").

Could be Frick ????? TomComment

If it is 'Frick' it isn't Wilhelm Frick as his signature is different.Comment

Wilhelm Frick for sure not. I have a document signed by him and signature is completely different. This will remain a mystery I think...

I agree that this document does not appear to bear the signature of Wilhelm Frick, who at the time of its writing was still Reichsminister of the Interior. This is a pre-printed form response letter from the Führer's Private Office acknowledging the receipt of a person's inquiry and informing that person that her inquiry has been forwarded to the office of the Reichscommissioner for the Consolidation of German Folklore for further response. The signatory was undoubtedly a low-level employee in the Führer's Private Office who, among other responsibilities, was responsible for rerouting incoming mail to the proper office or department.
Personally, I enjoy such "slice of life" everyday documents which illustrate the hum-drum existence of office workers and bureaucrats everywhere and throughout time!
