Johan i need your help
i just found that this man is present in the fotoromanzo I racconti di Sogno N. 36: "Il segreto di Ombrina" (October 1968) in the pics you posted in Pupita Lea's topic.
Can you check if maybe he is credited ? as you can see he is one of the party guest

No, he isn't credited. He only has a very minor party guest role. But I remember this guy. He shows up in some other fotoromanzi too.
He does have a fairly big and prominent role as a Nazi in I racconti di Sogno n. 59: "Un fiore nell'inferno" (September 1970):

Racconti Di Sogno 59 - Unknown Generico1.jpg

Racconti Di Sogno 59 - Unknown Generico2.jpg

Racconti Di Sogno 59 - Unknown Generico3.jpg

But in this fotoromanzo only the two protagonists are credited(!) so, sadly, I have no idea who he can be! :x

What a shame !
Is so frustratring when they do credited only some Actors, but at least i can see that he was very active in fotoromanzi, so hopefully soon or later we will found a credited role for him !

I'd very much like to know who he is, too, but at the very least here's another role for him in Vogliamo i colonnelli (1973) as a member of parliament

And in Natale in casa d'appuntamento (1976) as a party guest

Two more discoveries of our unknown generico!

First as one of the auctioners in Casanova '70 (1965)
Casanova 70 - Elegant Middle-Aged.jpg

And then a late appearance in Monsignor (1982), where he actually has two roles. First as a cardinal at the ceremony

and later as a monsignore who opens the door for the pope
