Description

Decorated German World War I ace (1893–1946) who rose through the Nazi ranks to become head of the Luftwaffe and one of Hitler’s most trusted associates.

Accompanied by an unsigned vintage typescript detailing the chronology of Rehder’s military service. A hint of very subtle soiling, small creases, and paperclip impression, all confined to margins, otherwise fine, clean condition. Auction LOA John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and R&R COA.
