I was curious about the Single engined JU52 in the picture in post #29 as I have never seen a single engined JU52 powered by a radial engine before. I think this is the 2nd prototype registered as D-2133 and powered by a Armstrong Siddeley Leopard twin row 14 cylinder engine. But I cannot find any reference to this plane mounted on floats. Very interesting picture!

Ok according to the Hugo Junkers Website Junkers Ju52

The second prototype was converted into a seaplane in July 1931 and was first flown from Zimmermann on July 17th 1931 on river Elbe.

So there is some evidence that this might be the 2nd prototype JU52 in 1931. Very rare picture!

I believe I can see the top half of 2133 in Snautzer's photo.
In the ARCO publication on Junkers it's listed as possibly c/n 4002 or 4003 and registered as D-2133. A poor quality photo below.
There was also c/n 4006 (CF-ARM) - powered initially by a BMW and then a R-R Buzzard that was at one point operated with floats.
