Does anyone have an example of Generalleutnant Eugen Demoll's signature for comparison purposes please and can confirm or refute the example below? The date, rank, place and position all fit so should be Demoll but I just cannot see that name in this signature. I have this signature in two different WP, both dated for 1936 but a few months apart.

It looks good to me with a strong signature of Kastner-Kirdorf, and the date fits which is always a good start!

Just a quick update to let people know that the index for the signature database has been given a massive update with all names now having links to their entries, and thanks to Dave Danner there has been a huge increase in signatures from the pre-Third Reich era. As of this moment there are 1,300 individual entries in the database so thank you to everyone who has contributed.
