has anyone ever seen a picture of one of the 60 trophies he had made for when he was credited with a victory. I tried searching for one but i have had no luck.

Hello, this photo may help. There is some footage somewhere taken post ww1 of his trophy room.
As far as i know the russians have got all 60.
They took all his things in 1944 from schweidnitz.

I know where there are some, can't remember the guy's name but he has a fantastic collection of WW1 Aviation items, a collection started by his father who met and knew many of the surviving pilots. The collection is on permanent display in the Airforce Museum in Denver Colorado.
