This is a group of nine WWII German Death Cards, or death notifications. While the cards are very known among collectors, the practice of the death notification cards started well before WWII and is not exclusive to Germany. The cards were used to announce the death of a family member, whether they were in the military or not. All nine of thes cards are for soldiers of the German Army, no SS, Kreigsmarine, Mountain troops or any other specialized units. While I can't read German, I have been able to determine when each individual was killed. The earliest one is 18 September, 1941 and the latest is May of 1945. Most of them seem to be in 42 and 43 from the Eastern front. Eight of the cards are double sided, only one folds out. They are all in good condition and will enhance any WWII German collection.
