Time again for German flyers on SANKE cards

[+Olham]

This website has tons of SANKE cards - worth to post it again.

I use them for making my own pilot photos - I only have to stick my own face on top.

SANKE was a photographer studio in Berlin (AFAIK), so I guess they are all German flyers.

But I have never yet seen through all the other photos on this site.

Hi olham..sorry, I deleted my post..as it was a really dumb question!...lol

I have it bookmarked but, thanks anyway!

Another site I use to collect pictures from, of not so known German pilots, is Flieger Album:

What a collection! Thank you, mein Freund!

[+Olham]

Yes, "Flieger-Album" is a great site too. Their pics are damn small, but good enough for OFF pilot photos.

And I finally found your source, I think. Is it not Rumey, 665?

[+Olham]

Hihihi - indeed, HumanDrone, it is Rumey. I like Jasta 5, and especially Rumey's officer's coat.

[HumanDrone]

Oh it's you alright! Probably one of the most convincing 'shops I've seen in a while. The coat and collar with the PLM is perfect, dashing and masculine, while the photo you used with the off-camera glance is suggestive of a more thoughtful and introspective man, rather than a brash, swashbuckling type. Very well done!

Thank you, HumanDrone.

Yes, that's me - or better: that used to be me around the age of 30.

I only found 5 or 6 photos of me which show me in a believeable WW1 pilot age.

The fact I havent...has prevented me from doing the same! (I look more like Worzel Gummidge!)

 

(not really me btw)

Hey, hey, there, there...

I have seen a photo of you, and it wasn't the right age, but you did look quite normal to me.

 

Looked it, I say.

Maybe you aren't, though. On the photo you were angling from your balcony...
