HEINRICH HIMMLER
(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 Nuremberg. Partly-printed D.S. with initials 'H H', 1p. oblong 8vo., Munich, Oct. 17, 1932, notice to SS-Sturmhauptfuhrer WILLY TENSFELD that he has been appointed to serve on the staff of SS-Abschnittes XIV. Right margin trimmed costing a letter of text, file holes at left margin, else very good. WILLY TENSFELD (1893-1982) would become a highly-placed member of the SS, eventually attaining the rank of SS brigade leader and major general of the police, late in the war serving as a liaison officer to the Italians.
