To me, the appear to be the same man.  The nose is the same in both pics.  Perhaps some of the scratches and marks in the first photo are appearing to us as wrinkles?

Thanks for suggestions.

Same man surely. Not merely nose, but cheeks, ears, chin. I can't see significant difference that could not reflect different facial expression and angle. Photos came from his grandaughter. Yes, some seeming wrinkles may be consequence of marks on picture. Even so,  the change is not so dramatic.

Perhaps a two year difference seems strained, but it could surely be a four year difference, say 1932 in the later photo with her.
