    Well many reasons. Its a very crisp photo probably taken by a Leica II camera in October or November 1944.
    Düppenbecker is a full war combatant as you can see by his career progression bellow.
    He also was a Panzergrenadier, so he right at the cutting edge of many engagements as indicated by him winning both the bronze and silver Nahkampfspange.
    He features in a few books and is a true combat leader.

    This is not mine, however this is honesty one of the best photos of Deutsches Kreuz im Gold winner Max Lagoda I have ever seen.
    Im sure a few of you here may have been able to write to him as I did a long time ago.

    Another duplicate in my collection. This is an original Hoffman postcard of Fritz Christen, the more common image I see within collectors' photos. Pretty sure the signature is postwar.

    If you could show the back Salocin of your Fritz Christen photo that would be good, it is known he had a lot of his hoffman cards reprinted after the war to send out to people.
    I would agree with you its a post war one, very nice Kretschmer
