 The MG in the second photo looks like another gun to me.

Thanks good photo...
 Usually I get different reproductions of the Guynemer with the two guns.. 1] Is the Lewis the same one that was in the second picture of Guynemer with one machine gun? 2] WHo were Guynemer 44 and 45 victory credits? If names unknown at least the units could be identified... 3} DId any French magazines or newspapers publish Guynemer with these two guns...and the captions said...? |

The adress of the Guynemer family home in Compiègne was: 112, rue Saint-Lazare.
The building is still existing. A plaque commemorating the famous resident has been placed at the entrance gate.
