This photo wasn't posted here yet, so I'll share it: after a long search, I finally found this excellent picture in good quality.

It was taken in November 1942 during the meeting of Goebbels and Axmann with Knight's Cross holders. One of those participants was Major Guhr.

First the picture, then the ID process.

A small correction: at the time this photo was taken, Hans Guhr held the rank of Oberleutnant.

Thanks to Michael for the help

A fantastic photo of Hans with his pair of favorites Reithose (cavalry breeches or riding breeches), Italian made.

Among the decorations Hans Guhr received during the war, there was one foreign: The Bulgarian Order of Bravery IV Class, presented to him on June 30th, 1942.

The decorations shown here is not his wartime one (it was lost after the war).
