KC holders on Hoffmann postcards

[Jacques4u]

Many Thanks to both of you.
To Richard : your info allows me to fill several gaps in the list.
To Valdis : there is a misunderstnading. The code numbers that you gave are in fact assigned to Film Foto Verlag (also known as Ross Verlag). These photos have IMHO a much better quality than the Hoffmann ones even if they are less known by collectors. But these are not Hoffmann.
Here is an example of a Film Foto Verlag production. Most of them have a caption on the obverse giving both name, rank and the award as well as the R code while this latter code is always found on the reverse side on Hoffmann's ones.
BTW, with my friend Dick, we are still looking for the following Film Foto Verlag R codes
R264
R274
R352
R357
R365
R366

If anybody owns these KC holders postcards in their collection, we would really like to know the name of the soldier.

For all other members : don't be shy, keep on giving new R codes for Hoffmann's !!

Thanks
Denis

R 365 Major Hans- Ulrich Rudel

R 366 Generaloberst Hube

Random Question

I am new to the forum. Was wondering if anyone had a photo or anything on an Alfred Gunther (Alfred Guenther). He was my wife's uncle in the 1st SS panzer division and Michael Wittman's original gunner on the Eastern front when they were in a Sturmgeschutz battalion. KIA in France in June, 1944 as part of the 101 SS Heavy Panzer battalion (3rd company). Thanks in advance!
