Martin Bormann Document. Real?

The signature is different from most, but I compared it to stuff in Hamilton's book and it could be an abbreviated early version. (note I said could).

What you you think? I think it would be hard to replicate these documents. But it may happen? Of course it could be a secretary. So many variables.

Also it says "Heil" and not "Heil Hitler". Either its faded off or perhaps in 1934 the documents didn't say "Heil Hitler"?


Thanks!

I just cannot tell by this pic ??? Tom

Okay. Thanks. Well after some more research I tend to think it is legit. Here is something similar from a year later, and the first part of the sig is pretty close with the first example.

A very nice and historic piece, and since the letter dated 22.5.34 was written to his father-in-law who out-ranked him, I tend to believe that he signed it himself!

It's signed with a simple "M." which makes sense as it was sent to his father-in-law. From a distance, it looks fine.

Thanks for your opinion!
