Date of death edit

I don't know when this person died, but it's not sensible to suggest first that his date of death is uncertain and then to state that one suggestion is correct and others are wrong. I've tried to indicate that all suggestions are equivalent (since, importantly, there are no citations that give evidence of the date of death). If someone could clear this up by providing citations/evidence, that would be a good thing. Accounting4Taste 18:59, 15 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

I added a source link but I believe it is a secondary source and cannot find the primary source
Some sources list Kley as a German Jew living in Munich Germany during the height of Nazism, so his date of death is unclear but likely never to be known. But I can't nail down enough info even to be sure he was in Germany, was Jewish and died in 1945. The best source I see for him being a Jew is that his book of collected sketches (Sammelalbum alter und neuer Zeichnungen. München : Langen 1923.) was banned according to Verbratten und Verbratten. They also list his death date(08.02.1945) but that is after the Nazi party fell by a few months. So it would be odd to find his death date on Nazi documents, seeing a those documents came before his death date.
