Rochus Misch Autograph

**qotd** · 10-20-2010, 02:47 AM

Got these in the mail today. One Pic shows Herr Misch Signing the phot and the other is from a different source of him sitting at a table. Definitely not printed on, and the slight difference in the signing makes it seem more of a real signature, after all he is 93 now and I doubt every autograph will be exactly the same. All in all I am happy with them, a unique opportunity to have this little piece of history!

Sorry for the poor pics, was so excited took them with my I phone

I've seen these on ebay, and was wondering if they are legit or not.

Yeh, well the two I have here are definitely signed, not autosigned or printed. Seems fair dinkum enough to me so far!!!

The signatures are authentic for sure

Did you get them directly from Rochus ??

The bath in his flat is full of requests for signatures from collectors and due to his age he does not sign very many anymore.

Rochus used to conduct battlefield walk arounds around Berlin and glady signed photographs for those he gave tours and lectures to. His family including son and daughter dissowned him as soon as they discovered his past in the SS and as Hitlers bodyguard and will have nothing to do with him. Though he insists to this day that the SS was one of the finest fighting units ever and he was proud to have served in the SS. Such signed items will inevitably gain value. One of my treasured autographs is a b&w signed photo and handwritten letter from German WW2 Fighter Ace Gunther Rall who has now passed away. Military autographs is a fascinating aspect often overlooked so well done for posting this up. Regards, Tim.

I have about 800 signed photographs and letters maybe we should start a thread for them if there is enough interest ???

I have got two.
One of Leon Legrelle and one of Otto Skorzeny.
As they are personified, they are framed and will never leave my wall's.
I could have had more, and may be I should have, but I have got no intention of collecting signatures.
These are more souvenirs of a great encouter to me.

I got these from a site in Germany from a bloke who knows him. I did try to get an address for him but looking at a few autograph forums showed that his address is often wrong or mail is sent back "return to sender". I dont normaly collect autographs but this opporunity came up and I grabbed it. Would love to have got Adolf Gallands!
