This is a nice original set consisting of a letter with matching envelope, by General der Panzertruppe 'Joachim Lemelsen' and a postcard showing his portrait photo. Lemelsen was a recipient of the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross with Oakleaves and the German Cross in Gold. The letter is a pre-printed letter as an answer to autograph requests. The date was to be added, this letter is dated 24 August 1943. The letter ends with 'Heil Hitler!' and the facsimile signature of Lemelsen. This document measures approximately 21 x 17 cms in size, it has been folded to fit in the envelope but is however in really good condition. The envelope was sent as 'Feldpost' to a schoolboy named Kurt Krieger from Neustadt an der Weinstraße (Germany). The back of the envelope has a seal from General Lemelsen. The postcard is from the famous 'Hoffmann' Knight's cross bearers (Ritterkreuzträger) series and is also depicting General J. Lemelsen. This propaganda postcard was published by 'Photo-Hoffmann' in München and measures approximately 14 x 9 cms in size. The card is in unsent and excellent condition. Decorative original set!
