early MGK funereal pic circa 1915?

[Eric Stahlhut]

here's a pic from a grouping i've had for eons (medal bar, 7 pics, boutonier all in an old period agfa box--mundane stuff). the quality of the postcard is poor, as are my photography skills.

however, i just noticed this particular item a few months ago, and i thought some of you might like to see it. boonzaier in particular. here goes:

Eppppppppppppppppppppppppppson scannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnner.....

Was that Feldpost mailed? I don't think I've everseen a marker like this

a)for TWO soldiers in the same grave and

b) that specifies the COMPANY-- but I do not see any REGIMENT?

rick,

none of the cards were mailed and only one has anything written on it. the cards are a mix of military and post-military life (the guy's wife/daughter, his kegel club, etc). the 4-medal bar, although very nice, is a standard 30s era (HK) with the usual stuff.

here's an image of the card with writing on the reverse:
