That's German space artist Detlev van Ravenswaay. Not sure, maybe the Oberth portrait was originally done by him.

Al, I have one exactly what you have there. This is Detlev van Ravenswaay signature. He designed this postcard. In fact, the one I have a return address. He said this is his early home address. I am in contact with him.
