So true so true.Joe, that would be speculation, which as you know, is 98% of this hobby. But it could be as mundane as Zoll officers posing for a photo with some soldiers.
There actually is a museum of German Zoll. Amazingly it is located in Hamburg. There is a page on the helmets. They have a picture of a Lubeck helmet.

There are a number of one-piece officer cockades with small holes running around from the Hansa cities. One story goes that these cockades came off Zoll and police helmets. I don't know.
