Well, that has been the first fleamarket I've been this year. I bought about 100 postcards, old ones of course, from towns in germany, cause they are pretty good to sell on Ebay.
Amongst them there are a few photographs also, some to keep, some to sell, but when I returned home with my "treasures" I had a closer look on that fieldpost card:
Pretty stamp from the Kommando des Alpenkorps, send in 1916.
Now I looked at the back and found a real surprise.
That is the signature of a Generalleutnant and commander of the Alpenkorps, which was Generalleutnant Krafft von Dellmensingen at that time.
Now it seems that he only signed with the name Krafft or von Krafft cause it looks like a little "v" in front of Krafft.
Although I'm pretty sure about the signature, I would like some confirmation from the real imperial specialists, if possible.
The postcard was a bargain anyhow, cause I paid approximately 1 Dollar / each.
Next question about another photo I got today:
I know he is aviation, but is it a Flieger or a Luftschiffer ?
And yet another one:
Austria, yes, is he a Hussar ? Any interesting medals ?
Thanks in advance
Kind regards
Robert
