The Hansen picture has clearly been enhanced. I wonder when this was produced.

Yes, it’s a postwar photo. My garbage scanner has a tendency to pixelate images, too. It’s 3x5 inches or so.
One of my favourites in the lot is the original postcard with postwar signatur of Leo Wilm, he's also depicted on the postcard!
Max Hansen is a enhanced version from a (period) photo of him, many veterans used cut out / enhanced photographs, especially if they didn't had any photograph of themselves anymore. Also more early on, later more people send motives themselves to be signed. Also Büch is a stunning one. Thanks, Nicolas !
[QUOTE=Salocin;2103250]Recent additions: Andre Bayle (SS Charlemagne, signed on reverse); Willi Hubner (one of the youngest RK recipients); Karl Wolff (Himmler's adjutant, walking between Himmler and Heydrich); and Paul Haussar, who I've been looking for for several years now.
Willi Hubner wins the EK not the RK. He is originally presented it by Goebbels in Lauban.

D’oh! That’s what I get for not proofreading. Thanks for the correction, Morris.
Was sure you knew that! Very nice Karl Wolff as well !
Sadly must pass on the passing of 12th SS hitlerjugend member and very good acquaintance over the years Erich Bissoir.
I use to do up the portrait photos of him and send them to him to send out to people.
Lovely man, loved to talk with people and put a lot of time into his letters.
He appeared in a new French documentary in 2019.
Last photo is him with Pee Wee Martin 101st
