German Second World War Documentation sent to Albert Forster, Gauleiter of Danzig.
Three letters, two A4, one A5, all punch holed for filing, the two larger letters sent to the notorious Gauleiter of Danzig Albert Forster, born 1902 hanged in 1952 in Warsaw as a war criminal. One letter on the heading of a senior party official from Dresden dated 23 March 1939, the other on the headed paper of a senior NSDAP official from Hamburg dated 6 January 1938 where he appears to be thanking Gauleiter Forster for a present of a Danziger Goldwasser. The third letter, between A5 and A4 size, on the impressed headed paper of the Gauleiter of Steiermark, Central Graz, 29 March 1939 also thanking Gauleiter Forster for his birthday greetings. Interestingly the 6 January letter has mistakenly been addressed to a Rudolf Forster instead of Albert Forster,
reasonable condition (3) £70-£90
