You're right, it's a nice item ( but it's already sold ) .

...his handmade drafts , probably for the emblem of U 2351

( I don't think that are the one's from his brother - KIA in march, 09- 1943 on the only first and last patrol on U 633
- but if anyone knows the emblem of U 633 , please let me know , to correct the thread !) )

the Heldentodurkunden duo from his brother Bootsmannsmaat Martin on U 633

KIA on his first patrol U 633 sunk 09 March 1943 in the North Atlantic, in position 58.51N, 19.55W, by ramming from the British merchant SS Scorton.

in this case it's very uncommon that Korvettenkapitän and Flottillenchef Lehmann- Willenrock filed these 2 ones orig. and not marked as a copy for the second one in this 1 month timeframe;
you'll see also the text and layout are different ( also the paper : first is on a light carton paper, the second one is a little thinner and without the print marking beyond left)
