(1897 - 1973) Russian field marshal who headed the Kalinin Front and resisted the German assault on Moscow. Later, Konev threw back the German attack at Kursk, surrounded ten divisions, and advanced with Zhukov to occupy Berlin. Rare S.P., a Czech postcard photo 4 x 6 in b/w, a chest, up pose in uniform signed at bottom in green indelible pencil and dated Jun 7, 1946. Very good. Konev retook Prague shortly after the official surrender of the German forces and was likely still stationed there.
