I suppose its possible.

Its also possible that the etching is someones 'vision'.

I have my doubts about that sketch. Look at Hitler, does he really look like the Hitler we "all know" (i.e. how he looked during WWII). Well... yes, he looks. Which leads me to the reason why I think it's a fake.

The guy with the white X above his head is Hitler during WWI. Eventho we dont see much of Hitler's face in the sketch, we can see he looks more like the WWII era Hitler than that of WWI. I rest my case.

What he said. I very much doubt they met.

I'd have to agree with Dowly. While it's possible that they had met, the chances of it are extremely low (Even lower that they played Chess).

I believe he was 20 years his senior to Hitler.

I imagine why it was made in the first place.
