Up for auction is an ORIGINAL small partial map from a German pocket atlas of the German Reich. The map shows territories of occupied Poland, including all ghettos such as Warsaw, Litzmannstadt, Radom, and Płock.

The interesting part about this small map is the stamp and the entries on the back. It features the stamp of the SS Leibstandarte along with the signature of a Sturmbannführer named Vollmer and the date Lublin, July 3, 1941.

I asked the AI and received the following information about it.: On 22. June 1941 the German attack on the Soviet Union (“Company Barbarossa”) began. The LSSAH advanced as part of the Panzergruppe 1 (Army Group South). Their delivery room and marching area in June/beginning of July 1941 was exactly the Lublin area in occupied Poland. On the 3. In July 1941, the Leibstandarte was located in the middle of the intense advance battles directly east of the border. The fact that staff or quartermaster units still provide documents or cards with the stamp of the Lublin base on this day is absolutely plausible for this logistical junction. There was an SS-Sturmbannführer Vollmer who served as a staff operator within Waffen-SS divisions.
