Lot 1262
Himmler, Heinrich. Typed Letter Signed ("H. Himmler,") one page, large quarto, Berlin, October 15, 1934. To SS-Gruppenführer Wittje. In part: "During a chance visit of SS-Brigadeführer Rediess to me in Berlin, I asked him how the case of Prestien, about which he informed me on the occasion of my inspection in Torgau on the 23rd of June, had gone….(He) informed me that he received a letter from the SS office…which stated that he should not have to put into motion the whole apparatus, but that he should take care of the Prestien affair himself…." Light toning and uneven upper edge, with tip of left corner missing; penciled file notes at upper right, one erasure at lower left and file holes at left margin. None of this affects Himmler's very bold signature on a letter which sounds very ominous for "Prestien." From the Institute of Documentation in Israel.
