HIMMLER, HEINRICH
(1900 - 1945) Hitler's Chief of the Gestapo placed in charge of security and responsible for the construction and operation of extermination camps. He chose suicide rather than face a hangman's noose at Nuremburg. Autograph docket, ""Heydrich R"" written in his typical green indelible pencil at the head of a letter from ""Der Reichsfuhrer Der Chef des Sicherheitshauptamtes"" (Heydrich's operation), 1p. 4to., Berlin, Aug. 23, 1937. Brigadefuhrer Taubers, who has signed at bottom, forwards a letter to Himmler advising him that SS Gen. Wolff shall deliver a document. Himmler in turn forwards the message to his primary henchman, the murderous Reinhard Heydrich, architect of the ""Final Solution"" who was thankfully killed by a Czech assassin. Very good.
