Description
A very important piece of SS prewar history. Original photo album documenting the funeral of SS-Obersturmführer Sepp Scherbl. The album was set up by his comrades and given to his parents.
 
A great first page with painted SS runes and a dedication:
Dedicate to the parents of the "unforgettable" Obersturmführer Sepp Scherbl in gratitude. Given by Sturmbann I, 3. SS-Standarte, Sturm 2. Signed by commander of Sturm 2 SS-Unterscharführer Kobl and commander of Sturmbann I SS-Hauptsturmführer V.Geppel.
 
We don´t know anything on the circumstances about his death but it can well be a political murder looking this massive funeral. We can exclude a natural death. 
 
45 original photos in total. Album in good condition 2.
Size: 27cm + 20cm.
