Reference photos for 9./KG4 - 9./KG30

Hello,

In working on the EoE aircraft color profile project, I'm looking for reference photos of Ju88s from 9./KG4, which, after about 1.11.40 became 9./KG30. I'm particularly looking for photos of Ju88s from 9./KG4 from the time they were first assigned to the unit prior to the beginning of the WC/FC until the end of 1940 or very early in 1941. This would include 9./KG30 Ju88s from mid-October 1940 to the end of the year, after the unit was re-designated. Right now the only Ju88 from that unit for which I have a photo is the rear fuselage of 5J+GT which was shot down near Schiphol AF, Netherlands on 10.5.40. Only the wreckage of the tail is visible, with no a/c codes or possible unit insignia visible. What I need are two a/c for the WC/FC (May & June, 1940), and three aircraft for the BoB/and early Blitz (July-Aug., 1940, Sept., 1940, and Oct.-Dec., 1940).

Who has reference photos, or know where they have been published that will help me fill this conspicuous gap?

Regards,
