Description
Reichsführer SS Heinrich Himmler original autograph on thank card for sympathy because of his fathers funeral (1936) – RARE.
Parchment like official paper with original Himmler signature.
Very rare due to the parsonal character of the card and it being only intended for personal friends and family, only the first i’ve ever seen.
In excellent condition with a good signed signature! Added two pictures of pages from a book that show the event of the funeral of Himmlers father.
Berlin, den 16. November 1936.
Für die Anteilnahme, Die Sie an dem hinscheiben meines guten Vaters genommen haben, danke ich Ihnen im Auftrage meiner lieben Mutter und meiner Familie sowie im eigenem Namen.
Die Menge der Breiefe und Beileidstundgebungen machen es mir leider unmöglich, sogar die vielen herzlichen handschriftlichen Briefe persönlich in der gleichen Weise zu benatworten.
Ich bitte, dies zu verstehen und unseren Dank mit diesen – leider nur gedruckten Zeilen entgegenzunehmen.
[Berlin, November 16, 1936.
I would like to thank you on behalf of my dear mother and my family as well as on your own behalf for the sympathy you have shown in the passing of my good father.
Unfortunately, the volume of letters and condolences makes it impossible for me to personally respond in the same way to even the many heartfelt handwritten letters.
I ask you to understand this and to accept our thanks with these - unfortunately only printed - lines].
