The original prop used these photos:http://www.bilder-upload.eu/upload/6258c1-1520504619.jpg
does anyone know where i can find photos from the malfoys as seen in the Daily Prophet? :confused
You can see it here clearly:
That is a very common misconception about Potter props. Props do not use the same photos as you can see in the film as those particular ones were filmed specifically for the film, while they did not have them filmed during the pre-production, therefore they had to use promo photos, concepts etc. What you call a hero prop - a prop that would be used for close-ups etc. - would normally have greenscreen or bluescreen attached to it, for the possibility of placing moving images there later. So I think the more relevant question would be what was actually used there on non-hero/background versions without VFX appliances. Some examples of props that used greenscreen/bluescreen (therefore hero props) below.
I'd like to point out this particular photo:
As you can see both the Dumbledore's book and the page below it would be using the exact same footage of Dumbledore ('To be shot Int. Dumbledore's Office 17th March 2010') (and actually the Daily Prophet cover showed in the GIF would be using the same footage as well).
