Yes i will protect itsylvieK4 wrote:If that is an authentic Helmut Wick autograph-photo, then you have a real gem! Keep it in a nice, safe place.
i am a person who does not know much about WW2 Signatures, what would be a wick signature worth? ( it is just a question, i like this photo and want to keep it for my children ).
thanks for the help
best regards
Niko
I honestly do not know what the value of a Wick signature would be, but on the second site I posted above, the autographed Knight Cross portrait is being sold for $1095 U.S currency.
Since Wick died during the war (Battle of Britain, over the English Channel) and was not around long enough to sign so many photos and items to make them common, I would imagine your piece would be pretty valueable.
Maybe someone else on the forum has a better idea of a fair value.
Where did you find that picture, by the way? Family item, or did you buy it at a sale?

Here is an example of a Moelders autograph from a Knights Cross portrait. The seller is asking $995 for it.

How did your grandfather get the pictures? They are very nice.

At first thanks for your Infos
I only know that my grandfather was an enthusiastic aviation and luftwaffe fan in the time of the third reich ( he was 17years old, when the war ended ).
After the war he did not talk about his former passion , he felt ashamed for the nazi war crimes and the holocaust, so sadly i only got informations about his youth when he was dead
best regards
