German aviator (1896–1941) who was his country’s second-highest-scoring ace of World War I, surpassed only by his commander, Manfred von Richthofen. Increasingly troubled relations with the Nazi party and with Hermann Göring in particular led to Udet’s suicide at the age of 45. Postcard image, 4 x 5.75, signed in ink. A notation on the reverse dates the item to 1938. Faint crease and a few minor surface marks, otherwise fine condition. RRAuction COA.
