Gentlemen,
Actually, the Überzug looks stock standard, it's the letters / number that caught my eye. Do the two dots on either side of the "I" have any significance ie: tactical / organizational symbol for a machinegun company or is that just wishful thinking?
Details of the wearer I've managed to glean from Kriegsranglisten und -stammrollen des Königreichs Bayern, 1. Weltkrieg 1914-1918:
Lothar Scheuer, Infanterie, 3 Ersatz-Masch. Gewehr-Kompanie Standort Hammelburg. This corresponds with the information he provided on the back of the postcard, so we have the right man.
