vin Hoeppner "rookie" card

The recent discussion about Sanke (and similar type) photo post cards, led me to review some of my more unusual cards in the collection. This one was part of a group I obtained many years from a German museum. As it shows von Hoeppner at the beginning of the war, Still in the Army, and before he became Commander of the German Air Service, and prior to being awarded his PLM. I always like to think of it as sort of his "rookie" card. Card was used and postmarked "10.XII.14" and is an F. E. Brandt Photochromiekarte, #107.
(*tried to change the typo of "vin" to "von" but cannot change title text)
