Bachmann, Johannes

[Kriegsmarine Admiral]

Hello, I am not an expert on signatures. I just bought this photo of Johannes Bachmann that has his signature.

Can anyone confirm if the signature is genuine, and perhaps post other examples of his signature?

Thanks

Hi,

it says Zur Erinnerung und als Dank - Bachmann, Admiral.

If it is an authentic signature I cannot say.

Thank you GreyC. And the date written is 29.II.43, correct?

[GreyC]

Yup.

Glad I could help. Interesting that he wears the wound badge for the navy of WW1.

It wasn't such an uncommom award among admirals. Here is the full photo. I am still waiting for it to arrive, so the best I can do is post this photo from the seller.

I found here https://gmic.co.uk/topic/57142-citations-marine-artillery-badge/#comment-666066 an example of Bachmann's fascimile stamped signature.

Can anyone comment, when looking at this signature, if mine is the same and authentic?

Thanks

I´d say it is a bit different, but many signatures are not always looking the same.
