ON HOLD,ON HOLD,ON HOLD Rare signature Dr Theodor Morell, Adolf Hitler’s personal physician. Theodor “Theo” Karl Ludwig Gilbert Morell (22 July 1886 – 26 May 1948) was a German medical doctor known for acting as Adolf HITLER’S personal physician. Morell was well known in Germany for his unconventional treatments. He assisted Hitler daily in virtually everything he did for several years and was beside Hitler until the last stages of the battle of Berlin. Hitler granted Morell high awards, enabling the latter to become a multi-millionaire through business deals with the Nazi government, made possible by his status. Morell was captured by American forces and interrogated on 18 May 1945. Although he was held in an American internment camp on the site of the former Dachau concentration camp and questioned because of his proximity to Hitler, Morell was never charged with a crime. Grossly obese and suffering from poor health, he died in a Tegernsee hospital on 26 May 1948.
