(1908 – 1984) Austrian Nazi Gauleiter and Reichsstatthalter of the Reichsgau Styria during the Third Reich. He was held at the former Dachau concentration camp but he fled in 1947 when he learned of plans to hand him over to Yugoslavia for prosecution. There were unconfirmed reports that he escaped to Argentina, though this is disputed. It is known that he eventually lived with his family in Sindelfingen, Germany, under an assumed name. Rare S.P., 3.5 x 5.5 in. b/w, a portrait in uniform as Gauleiter, signed at bottom above an ink identification. Very good.
