Legion Condor Wehrpass "ehrenpokal"

[Mike TM]

Hello, I have just purchased this WP of Gerhahr Hobbie (gunner of Mölders). There's no photo on page three. It comes with several papers. I post some pages for opinions.

Thanks for looking

LW medal for 4 years, EK2, WK1 and ehrenpokal, I can read. But I don't see the two last. Can be the last the Spanienkreuz in gold? I have read on a thread on this forum, that was won for this person.

regards
Mike
