I own these original photos. So far I'm coming up short.

Can you identify this aircraft?

Thanks

The elongated horizontal stab, wing shape and half moon engine cowl with radial resemble the Eindecker design. The rounded fuse, vertical stab (both upper and lower of horizontal), and cockpit resemble the Taube design. If I would have to guess I would say it is of the Fokker origin and possibly the Eindecker line. It may be an early Eindecker prototype.
