Very important partly-printed D.S. "Oswald", 12pp. legal folio, Nuremberg, October, 1948, in German.

Willy von Fritzken[?] Ritter von [?] in thankfulness. Nuremberg Justice Prison June 46 - October 48" Beneath, Pohl pens two paragraphs from a poem by Rainer Maria Rilke, a 1924 work: "What our spirit of confusion reclaims Will eventually benefit the living Even if it is sometimes just our thoughts They dissolve in that great blood...". The unrepentant Pohl makes several amazing claims in his statement: "...I studied the essays that Henry Ford had published in the newspaper The Dearborn Independent in the years 1924/26 and as a book entitled 'The International Jew'... It is this attitude that great practical American who was not an anti-Semite, had then impressed upon me and strengthened my belief that racial and the Jewish problem were not only gray theories. On the basis of this knowledge, and given the increasingly obvious phenomena in Germany, I became convinced that the influence of Judaism was disproportionate to its population and therefore, that containment is necessary. I considered such by legislative methods possible and also sufficient... I have therefore never been involved in acts of violence against Jews, nor endorsed this or knowingly promoted them. On the legislative measures of any kind I was also not involved... I am not conscious of having committed a crime...". Pohl was captured by British troops on May 27, 1946 and sentenced to death on Nov. 3, 1947 by an American military tribunal for crimes against humanity, war crimes, mass murders and crimes committed in the concentration camps. Pohl was not executed right away, repeatedly appealing his death sentence, but was finally executed on June 8, 1951. SOLD WITH: a copy of a diagram extensively tracing Pohl's ancestry back several generations, not race-related. Important for research. Two pieces.

OSWALD POHL (1892 - 1951) Head of the Economic Office of the SS and ultimate overseer of the concentration camp system. It was Pohl who turned his victims' dental gold, eyeglasses, hair, etc. into cash for the SS, using the infamous "Max Heiliger" Swiss accounts. Captured and executed in 1951. Fine association typed D.S., 2pp. folio, Berlin, Sep. 3, 1944, a request that the notorious FRIEDRICH "FRITZ" HARTJENSTEIN be promoted to the rank of SS-Obersturmbannfuhrer. This "Personal-Antrag" is sent to the SS Personnel Headquarters from Oranienburg, Aug. 22, 1944, and is signed at bottom by an unidentified SS Gruppenfuhrer, perhaps Inspector of Concentration Camps Richard Glucks. Hartjenstein is described as a "Camp Commandant", and his earlier service record is described. It concludes: "...in May 1944, he took over the Concentration Camp [Natzwiler] as commander. He made it a model camp and it continues to expand and organize the establishment of a larger working stock [slave labor]. Harjenstein is for my service area particularly suitable. I recommend his promotion to SS-Obersturmbannfuhrer...". On the verso, Pohl boldly signs his approval of the promotion. Beneath appear yet more details concerning Hartjensteing, including his children's birthdates, his service record including dates of service at Auschwitz and Natzwiler, his military education, dates of promotion, etc. Stained at margins, with one large stain at right costing a few words of text, else very good. FRIEDRICH HARTJENSTEIN (1905-1954) began his SS work at Sachsenhausen in 1938. The following year he was transferred to Niederhagen and in 1941 he served for a year with the 3rd SS Division Totenkopf, a Waffen SS combat division. In 1942, he was appointed the commandant of Birkenau. This was the main camp at Auschwitz which contained the extermination facilities and crematoria. In 1944 Hartjenstein was appointed commandant of Natzweiler concentration camp in France. In 1945 he went to work at Flossenburg concentration camp. He would die while awaiting execution by the French. Natweiler, a labor and punishment camp at which 25,000 people suffered and died, was evacuated only a few weeks after Hartjenstein received his promotion.

OSWALD POHL (1892 - 1951) Head of the Economic Office of the SS and ultimate overseer of the concentration camp system. It was Pohl who turned his victims' dental gold, eyeglasses, hair, etc. into cash for the SS, using the infamous "Max Heiliger" Swiss accounts. Captured and executed in 1951. Superb association of the names of two of Nazi Germany's two most infamous murderers, Pohl and JURGEN STROOP (1895-1952) SS and Police Leader of the Poland-Warsaw area. It was Stroop who, during the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising of 1943, ordered its suppression costing the lives of tens of thousands. As his forces were forced back by heavy resistance, he ordered the entire Ghetto burned down, building by building, and the killing or deportation to extermination camps all of its inhabitants. Pohl mentions Stroop in his letter, 1p. large 4to. stamped "Reichsfuhrer SS" at top, Berlin, Mar. 7, 1939 in which he writes both Stroop and a personnel officer in Karlsbad. It appears that 28.SS-Standarte Treasurer Johannes Hegel had been apprehended embezzling RM 67 from the regiment's funds. Stroop had ordered that the man be expelled for a period of one month, but apparently he had continued working on the staff. Pohl then asks that more severe measure be taken. File holes and dampstains at left margin, some very small chips at bottom affecting nothing. Both Pohl and Stroop met a fitting demise at the end of a hangman's rope.
