There is a very nice webpage dedicated to use of captured armor in German Wehrmacht: Beutepanzer
Very nice source.
I found an "old German". Here is an original and a little chaotic description:
"Mutti hast du ein bild von diesem, ich weiß es seber(?) nicht das bild ist schon etwas älter. Vor dem Fotografieren bin ich nicht gewesen (......) auf dem Mb. G. Standt (or Stadt). Welche ein bisschen verstandes Gesicht."
It's difficult to translate this text literally. That's meaning more or less:
"Mummy, have you this photo. It's old photo and I'm not present on this(?). (...) on Mb. G. Stadt. My face was a little surprised (in meaning see something first time)."
I think he was nervous when he wrote this text.
Best Regards
Bartek

Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader

Right on Ralph. He is partnered with "totenkopf elite" who is also a fraudster...but has been selling original deathcards recently.......still couldnt pay me to buy from either of em
As a matter of fact, we should do an up -to - date bad sellers list on the IDing fake photos thread for the heck of it.
