Lot 285
Nuremberg Trial. Uncommon and highly desirable. Vintage signatures (some ink, some pencil, many dated 1946) of the twenty-one men condemed to imprisonment at the Nuremberg Trails for crimes against humanity. The first fifteen signatures are penned back to back (some upside down) on both sides of an off-white 7½ x 9½" sheet:
Wilhelm Frick, Julius Stricher, Hjalmar Schacht, Fritz Saukel (pencil), Wiliam Von Keitel (pencil), Alfred Rosenberg (pencil), Hans Fritzche, Baldor von Schirach, Arthur Seyss-Inquart, Karl Donitz, Joachim Von Ribbentrop, Constantium von Neurath, Herman Goering, Alfred Jodl, Hans Frank, Albert Speer, Erich Raeder, Franz von Papen, Walter Funk and Ernst Kultenbrunner are all on individual off-white sheets. Also included is Dr. R. Ley (who died before trial but was accused) and the key item in the set - a striking 3½ x 5" vintage photo of Rudolf Hess boldly signed in the lower margin.
Fine.
Estimated Value $1,500 - 3,000.
