Description
A collection consisting of three documents, measuring 254x354mm and 275x392mm respectively, all in extremely fine condition with minor scuffing and age-related discolouration.
One document is German, stating that Obergefreiter (Senior Lance Corporal) Heinz Weissmüller is awarded the Spanish Cross in Silver with Swords for his services during the Spanish civil war (1936–39). The document is dated to Berlin on June 6, 1939, and carries AH's facsimile.
The other two documents are Spanish, thanking Sargento (Sergeant) Weissmüller for his services and awarding him “la Cruz roja del Mérito Militar” (the Cross of Military Merit with Red Decoration) and “la Medalla de la Campaña” (the Medal for the Campaign of 1936–1939). Both documents are dated to Burgos on May 4, 1939 and carry the facsimile of the National Defense Minister, Fidel Dávila Arrondo. (C:44)
