Re: 1939: a stunning Bf 109 E-3 flown by... St.G 7 !
I have been working on photoshop for a looooooooooooooooong time...and I am 99% sure that this specific image is good. My feeling is that it is a staged photo. It was not a case of, "ah let's take a photo"...they specifically wanted an pic of the emblem, and ground crew at work. As such, the emblem was cleaned to look good, a mechanic/wart was asked to make it look like he was working on the plane...and the photo was taken.
I do not see any issues or descrepancies with this image...but I do suspect it is a wartime re-print. It is quite grainy, similar to all the Russian reprints from their war archive...and there is a dark line at the top, not usually seen on original printed pics . |
