ADOLF EICHMANN
(1906 - 1962) Nazi military officer charged by Hitler with the destruction of the Jewish race, present at the Wannsee Conference where the "Final Solution" was formulated, and generally oversaw the operation of the death camps. Captured and smuggled to Israel, he was convicted of war crimes and hanged. Exceedingly rare A.D. (unsigned), 1p. 8" x 3 1/4", [n.p..], dated "May 1944" in another hand in red indelible pencil. In full: "Document No. 5 V&W loss Concerning Jews about to be evacuated". A pencil note at left, else fine. Any Eichmann material concerning Jews is especially rare.
