Lodz Gestapo signature

[huddyhuddy]

Good morning,

Any chance of identifying the signature here?

It belongs to an official called Walden but unfortunately I don't know his first name or details. I have seen his name before though in regards to evacuations from Lodz.

Just found some information about him - name is Franz Walden.
