Here is another picture of the early days of the museum; source: https://www.strijdbewijs.nl/slag/overloon1.htm

it seems the writer on the website assumes it shows the actual battlefield, but in my view this is in fact the museum (Cookie in the background) shortly after it opened.
I seem to remember this picture was also included in a old museumguide, but I can't find it at the moment.

For those interested.....early museum pictures of a number of the vehicles can be found here:

Not WW2 pictures, but to me these are still very interesting pictures as most of the exhibits still carry their original paint and markings.
