Lot 13
A scarce Third Reich Knights Cross of the Iron Cross presentation document on vellum to (Oberstleutnant) Joachim Friedrich Huth, later Generalleutnant, dated 11th September 1940 (a German Battle of Britain pilot), in its red leather covered folder with gold blocked eagle and swastika to the front. The document in very good condition, the folder slightly scuffed. With a “Letter of Guarantee” from Adrian Forman, dated 1990. Huth’s entry in “Die Ritterkreuztrager der Luftwaffe” by Ernst Obermaier reads: “Fighter pilot in WWI. Led several fighter and destroyer Gruppen during the Luftwaffe’s build up and became Kommodore ZG26 in January 1940. He was awarded the Knight’s Cross for his Geschwader’s great successes during the French campaign and the Battle of Britain. Became Jafu 2 in 1941, then Kommandeur of the 1st Fighter Division until December 1943, 7. Jagddivision until November 1944 and I. Jagdkorps. Died on 27.3.1962”. A famous photograph shows Douglas Bader sitting in the cockpit of an Me 109 after his capture with a group of Luftwaffe officers looking up at him, and Huth apparently pointing a pistol at Bader. The “pistol” was in fact the handle of Huth’s walking stick! Plate 8
