Martin Ludwig Bormann (shown in the reference photo below) joined the Nazi Party in 1927, and was a member of the SA and SS as well. He was the private secretary of Adolf Hitler, a very important and influential position that he used to control the flow of information to, and access to Hitler. After Rudolf Hess fled to England in 1941, Bormann also became Head of the Parteikanzlei, the Nazi Party Chancellery, a position that gave him final approval over civil service appointments, as well as the possibility to review and approve legislation.

In 1929 Martin Bormann married Gerda Buch who was the daughter of Walter Buch, SA and SS member and jurist who was the head of the Supreme Party Court (Oberste Parteigericht). Between April 1930 and September 1943 the couple had 10 children.

One letterhead is for Bormann’s position as Secretary to the Führer. Note it was for use at the Führerhauptquartier (Hitler’s Headquarters) but that all mail should be sent to the Führerbau in Munich. Another letterhead is from Bormann’s administrative office on the Obersalzberg, and the third one is his personal stationery.

All three pieces are in very nice condition and absolutely original to the Third Reich in Hitler’s Germany. Condition exactly as shown.
