MvR's 1925 State funeral in album on eBay-Deustchland

There is an album for sale on eBay Germany. In looking through the photos I can see the one showing the casket lying in state w/ the wooden cross from the cemetery in Fricourt. The procession shows von Hindenburg and others in the procession. The album doesn't mention whose funeral this is... but the photo w/ Veltjens wearing the PLM and standing by the casket in the third row down/lefthand photo and the ordenskissen (velvet pillow w/ decorations) look to be the same arrangement as MvR's. The fourth row/lefthand photo shows other PLM wearers as pall bearers, including who looks to be Loerzer as the right/front pallbearer. The images are a bit small, but for MvR fans, a bit of history. There are other photos of Hindenburg in Berlin and Wiesbaden at State funerals.

Take a look:

Interesting, those are definitely shots of the 1925 Richthofen burial.
