Perfectfor Framing
Reproduced and enlarged photo of Luetnant Karl-Emil Schaefer takenfrom Sanke Postcard # 512 (from mycollection)
Schaeferwas a member of von Richthofen\'s Jasta 11 in the Spring of 1917. He flewwith the Jasta 11 during \"Bloody April\" and was one of its mostprolific scorers, gaining 15 victories in the month. Schaefer wasposted to Jasta 28 as Staffelfuhrer on the 26th of April 1917 whichwas also the date he was awarded both the Pour-le-Merite and the Knightâs Crosswith Swords of the Royal Hohenzollern House Order. He gained a total of 30 victories when, on 5June 1917, he was killed in action while engaging FE2ds of 20 Squadron RFC.
I havemeticulously removed all the writing and cleaned up the photo. It is now over 4times the size of the original Sanke card while still retaining a crisp, clearimage. Matted and framed it would make a handsome addition to anyone\'s WWIcollection.
