SMCollection

This is truly a mother lode of post-war hand-signed WWII German Knights Cross recipient photos. There are over 600 different signed photos in this collection. If you would like a larger picture or additional information on any item in this collection, please contact me at cy@hotlinecy.com. An alphabetical index that includes the size of the photo, any special details, rank, etc. can be found by clicking here.

Many of these photos are superb in that many different decorations and uniforms are pictured. There are also many little known recipients that are very difficult to find and many, many units are represented.

All items are subject to prior sale. I do not have multiples of any of these items. As an item sells, I will attempt to delete it immediately.

Forms of payment accepted are PayPal, personal or company check, American Express, Discover, MasterCard, and Visa. My PayPal username is my email address - info@cytreasures.com.

Some of these have notes, address labels, etc. on the back. Also, a few came with letters and/or the envelope the photo was sent in. If I have those, they will be included. The individual who collected these must have been a stamp collector also because almost all of the envelopes have the stamp clipped off the envelope. It looks like the collector collected these in the 1970's and 1980's by writing the subjects and at numerous reunions. The collector apparently started his collection at the perfect time for postwar signed items. The late 1960's is when people around the world started collecting autographs of German heroes. Many of these heroes were still alive and had not started to get inundated with autograph requests. Today only a few are still alive and most no longer honor autograph requests.

Many of these pictures are in plastic sleeves. If it appears there is writing on the picture or that the picture is wrinkled, that writing and wrinkle is the sleeve, not the photo.

I am only posting between 100 and 200 photos per page to make the pages load faster. Click on the links below to go the numbered item you wish to see.
