    As we are a team we can help each other.

    Hi Gerdan:

    Actually English and German neither my first language. But I must say I do learn a lot of communication skill through the hobby and this great forum.

    Thanks once again for the freat help!

                  Thank you Gran Sasso and Gerdan for filling in those blanks, do you have an idea what the writing in the bottom right corner means ( angled 45° )?

                  Regards, Olivier.

                    Hi Olivier,

                    Wttbg > Württemberg > it must be related to the address on the right side?

                      From what i can read of the adress that sounds very likely, "Plochingen a. N." in "Deutschland" which is indeed located in Baden-Württemberg, thanks for the help Uwe!
                      Besides those two parts and the family name i'm having less succes then i hoped with the adress side, any help with this remainder would be appreciated.

                      Regards, Olivier.

                          Hi,

                          "Moskau, den 25.2.1940.
                          Einen Gruß an Sie und alle Stammtischbrüder,
                          besonders auch dem Nachbar "Frieder",
                          aus weiter Fern', von meiner Reis',
                          sendet Ihnen Wilhelm Meiss"

                          He was a poet, it rhymes. The normal text was Ferne (distance) and Reise (travel).

                          The address:
                          ... Senne (Sonne?),
                          Eßlinger Straße,
                          Plochingen a.N. (am Neckar)

                                He has done what he had to do,
                                now he is united with god.
