Rare and historical Reichsführer-SS Himmler signed document countersigned by SS-Obergruppenführer August Frank and Hans Jüttner, recommending the award of the German Cross in Silver

Price: SOLD

A particularly interesting German Cross in Silver recommendation, issued after the 10th July 1944 assassination attempt on Hitler. With the German Army no longer trusted, Army General Staff operations were transferred to the SS, under the command of SS-Obergruppenführer August Frank. This document recommends Army Staff Officer Walter Boesler for the award of the German Cross in Silver. The recommendation was put forward by Frank who signs his name in ink to the front page. The middle pages detail the reason for the recommendation. The reverse page has the approval for the award signed in ink by Frank, Jüttner and Himmler; all three signatures being good clear examples. A very interesting document with both Frank and Jüttner signatures being classed as rare, and obviously the Himmler signature being very desirable. Would go very nicely with one of the German Cross in Silver awards we have for sale within our medal pages.
