It is an Opel Blitz Kastenwagen, 1935 is too early. Find the coachbuilder.

Opel Blitz 1,5 t, Zeilinger, 1950.
Ein Henschel zieht am Berg und ein Mercedes

Coachbuilt by Zeilinger is correct, but according to my source it is not a 1,5 t and not from 1950. Locked for you.

Here is my source. A report on the company history of Zeilinger. In direct comparison, however, the puzzle truck looks longer. So, it is a
3 t-Version. Year of construction? The post-war start of Zeitlinger, after reconstruction, was in 1950, so 1951?

Yes, it is a 3 tons Opel Blitz 3,6 and it appeared in 1949, as I took my picture from a 1949 magazine.

One more point for you.
