WWII Nazi Adolf Eichmann Signed Sonderausweiss
WWII Nazi Adolf Eichmann Signed Sonderausweiss. Adolf Eichmann is notorious for being one of the major organizers of the Holocaust. He was ordered with organizing and facilitating the logistics needed to deport Jews to ghettos, concentration camps, and extermination camps. Adolf Eichmann escaped to Argentina and hid from justice before being found in 1960. He was extradited to Jerusalem, Israel for trial and executed by hanging in 1962. The SS Sonderausweiss is a special pass, similar to a visa or passport. It allowed safe passage of the recipient in and out of Nazi Germany and had to be signed off by a member of the SS. Signature is clear and distinct, Sonderausweiss is yellowed with age and wording is slightly faded. Good condition and a great example of a lesser known piece of Nazi history.
