An interesting, small series of autograph notes in the hand of Eichmann, unsigned (although with his surname Eichmann in the body of the text), one page, folio, n.p. (Jerusalem), n.d. (c. June 1961), in German. In bold blue and pink pencil Eichmann has written several notes concerning the Nazi official and SS-Brigadefuhrer Franz Six and his claim that Eichmann was not present when Six spoke with Reinhard Heydrich every three or four weeks. Some very light, extremely minor age wear, VG
Franz Six (1909-1975) Nazi official, promoter of the Holocaust and convicted war criminal. In 1940 Six was appointed by Heydrich to direct state police operations in an occupied United Kingdom should a German invasion take place.
Six was called as one of four witnesses by defence attorney Robert Servatius in the 1961 trial of Eichmann, and gave his testimony in West Germany which ultimately proved to be of more benefit to the prosecution.
Reinhard Heydrich (1904-1942) German SS-Obergruppenfuhrer and police official of World War II, a principal architect of the Holocaust.
Provenance: From the archive of Robert Servatius (1894-1983) German Lawyer known for his defence of Nazi war criminals including Adolf Eichmann.
