http://von-mackensen.livejournal.com/367695.html (http://von-mackensen.livejournal.com/367695.html) There are some interesting images of planes, including Po-2, Il-2, P-39, an interesting Yak-9 etc. Regards Massimo Title: Re: photo gallery of Von Mackensen Post by: Spitfire on March 08, 2016, 10:59:02 AM Fascinating
Cheers Dennis Title: Re: photo gallery of Von Mackensen Post by: John Thompson on March 08, 2016, 09:03:46 PM That's interesting - all of these photos have been (and still are) offered for sale on ebay.de. I assume the current owner is getting rid of them (or at least selling prints from the negatives), and not that someone else is copying them from the von Mackensen site and selling the copies!

it would be interesting to look at the prints to see if the .jpg of the site is better or worse than them. Regards Massimo Title: Re: photo gallery of Von Mackensen Post by: AC26 on March 08, 2016, 10:27:56 PM Hi John, Hello Massimo,it would be interesting to look at the prints to see if the .jpg of the site is better or worse than them. Regards Massimo Prints are sepia coloured fiber paper if I'm correct. Glossed picture side and sharp. I would say them as good quality prints which are better than those pretty good jpgs. Not uv-proofed yet.

If they reappear, I'll let you know! John Title: Re: photo gallery of Von Mackensen Post by: Massimo Tessitori on March 09, 2016, 03:07:53 PM Hi John,
the plane with the slogan is very interesting. I wonder if the slogan was on other planes of the line, of which we can read the code on the tail. regards Massimo Title: Re: photo gallery of Von Mackensen Post by: KL on March 11, 2016, 07:06:17 AM the plane with the slogan is very interesting.

Interestingly, one of the planes is without its sliding hood.
