Mel, the image size is good. I deluded myself into thinking the blue and silver colour combined with the strut wires would lead to a British racing plane.

Ah, then it MUST be the Bulgarian Cranack 4B Fitzzer R.

Should that guess prove wrong, maybe Italian? And not German?

This aircraft was constructed in the mid 1930s but was not a Russian aircraft.

Not the Avions Fairey Mk. VII Fox. Only a few aircraft of this type were built but it did remain in service until the mid 1940s.
