There's not much to be said about the image(s) themselves: Just two early-war group photographs of Heer [Army] soldiers. We'll never know what's the business with the plate.
As for the text on the reverse side:
"2 Abzüge" actually doesn't mean it's a double print (although, of course, it is one); it simply means "2 prints/copies". (A double print would be a Doppelbelichtung.)
"Kosten" and "Posen" are, respectively, the German names for Kościan and Poznań in Poland; the "Warthegau" (after the Warthe/Warta) was the part of Poland that was fully annexed into the Reich proper (as opposed to the Generalgouvernement).
"Reg.Bez." is the abbreviation for "Regierungsbezirk" [administrative region]; a "Landratsamt" is an Administrative District Office.

I already thought so. But I could always try to ask, maybe there is a little chance someone knows anything about it.
Thank you for your quick reply!
