These 2 photos were in the belongings of a WW1 vet who was my neighbor when I was a child. After he died I was able to buy his uniform and other goodies from the family and these were with his stuff. Don't know if they're special but I think they are cool. They are about 5x7. Thanks for looking .

Yes it's the Kaiser, one way to tell is the Gendarme with the Kaiser's Personal Flag, he's the one in the dark uniform, which would be dark green, and wearing the Cuirassier Pickelhaube.

Another way to tell is his bad left arm

Thanks for confirming guys. I appreciate the info
