Unfortunately that is a copy. The picture sequence this shot is taken from is published before and I believe the originals are held by the Bundesarchiv.

The paper and exposure also counts against it.

Cheers

It's a copy/repro.....Is the seller ng1976 on ebay?

All prints are copies anyway. If it's a press photo then it might well have been copied dozens or hundreds of times both during and after the war and from both the orginal negative and from prints. This one looks like its from a print as it's so poor.
