Your choosen plane, the D-OMUH had black wings undersides, and the typical swastika Emblem on the side rudder. The Name of the plane (all Lufthansa planes had names) was "Tauchente", that was written under the "Lufthansa" on the engine. But it had also a different side rudder (like the later Ju52).

Before (till 1934) this plane wore the number D-463 without swastika. But it still had the different tail and the black wings undersides.

And before it was converted with this new rudder, it had the "first style" rudder you are showing, but it was used as a float plane! That's the origin of the planes Name "Tauchente" (diving duck)

Best regards,
Andreas

No problem, Andreas, for pointing out the issues with this model. I did design the model with the black underside, but for reasons of "ink economy" I printed it in grey.
As for the different versions, I did not find much satisfactory info on what was used on what plane. So the model is a bit of an improvisation.

Dear Bruno:
I do not know the details but I would like a Junkers F.13 with the new tail and enclosed cockpit. I am sure that there were such planes.
Am I right experts in Junkers planes?
Best regards.

PS very happy to see that we are getting closer to the W.33 and 34

Missed your point Michi, what was it again?

My (purely egoistic) point is, that I'd rather have the Junkers G.31 than the W.33, for the simple reason, that the G.31 is the largest gap in my collection of Junkers planes - as I said: Purely egoistic!

F13s are a bit... hmm... grey, but at least the Eurasia planes were a bit more colorful.

The the Colombian SCADTA operated a fleet of float F13.

And, finally, I've found one single picture of a F13 with an enclosed cockpit, I think there were next to none such planes (but at least one).

(Eurasia:
It might not be that clear from the profile: Undersides are black with the lettering of the upper wings repeated in white on the lower wings)

Fun F13! How about the Junkers W33, that first flew the Atlantic from East to West. Just a bit of a stretch.
