1296. ERWIN J. ROMMEL (1891-1944) German field marshal whose Afrika Corps threw back repeated British and American assaults in North Africa, later he defended Normandy and ultimately was forced to commit suicide due to his implication in the Hitler bomb plot. War-date S.P. "Rommel", 3 1/2" x 4 1/2" b/w, a fine chest-up pose in uniform, signed in pencil at bottom. Signature has rubbed-off to the point of near invisibility, yet the impression of his pencil remains very obvious and otherwise fine. $150-200
