Right you are Joe! Knotel also made these postcards for the separate series. Here is the Feuerwehr postcard that you show in the back of your display.

Along with the postcard is the tunic of the FFW NCO shown on the right. This has a slightly different kind of wide working Feuerwehr equipment belt made in woven cloth instead of the leather style shown in the postcard. I suspect that some Firemen liked this belt since it would dry better than the leather over time.
