Description
Hans Traut (25 January 1895 – 9 December 1974) was a German general during World War II. He was a recipient of the Knight’s Cross of the Iron Cross with Oak Leaves of Nazi Germany. Traut surrendered to the Red Army troops in the course of the Soviet 1944 Vitebsk–Orsha Offensive. In 1947 he was convicted as a war criminal in the Soviet Union and sentenced to 25 years of forced labor. Traut was released in 1955. Made of heavy card, this postcard is in EXCELLENT condition! Featuring a photographic image of Hans Traut, it is signed in ink. Some marks and wear due to the age on the reverse, but nothing that detracts. Dated 1942, it is 100% original, and would look EXCELLENT framed! A PERFECT addition to any collection or display!
