Looks like a Fiat C.R.32

Not much data seems to be available, but take a look here:

https://www.aviafrance.com/farman-f-291 ... e-6473.htm

http://maquette72.free.fr/amis/GMazon/2 ... _ag249.php

It 's difficult to identify this plane exactly as there were a number of very similar aircraft models in the Farman 190 family with different designations, and sometimes, as the second link explains, parts of one model were used on a different model aircraft, but it's clearly a Farman of the model family. Who knows, the plane in the picture may even be the one presented in the second link, as the tail seems to be the same and the picture shows the aircrat in national (not republican) markings.

Regards.

DeHavilland DH.89 Dragon Rapide

I believe one flew Franco to Spanish Morocco

Yes, a Dragon Rapide. They were flown by both sides in the SCW.
The Dragon Rapide that flew Franco from the Canaries to Spanish Morocco, the real one, is preserved and can be seen at the Spanish Museo de Aeronáutica y Astronáutica in Madrid.
