Equipment

Early tropical Y-strap in olive green webbing with olive green metal hardware. There is a hard to read name on the back of the leather O-ring cover. Even without the backstrap a very desirable example in good used condition.

Short M38 gasmask canister in three-tone Normandy camouflage complete with all straps and mask. This is a beautiful, one looker example of a ‘Normandy’ camouflage gasmask canister with mask and filter. The canister retains up to 90% of its original camouflage paint. Very hard to upgrade example!

Textbook late war straight E-tool carrier manufactured out of tan coloured Pressstoff in excellent, light used condition. The carrier is nicely marked jwa which indicates production by Moritz Stecher, Lederwerk, Freiburg. The carrier features smooth and pebbled black leather details. Excellent example which would be very hard to upgrade!

A very rare tropical Gasplane in unissued/mint condition. The gasplane is nicely marked pcd. Op indicates Oppanol : a transparent versatile polymer, impervious to water and many different gases and resistant to chemicals. (Tp/Ark) indicates these where made for Tropical or Arctic use. One of the rarest gascapes to find!

Very nice “tropical” M31 breadbag in good condition. This breadbag is most likely made in the Ghetto of Lodz, Poland which the Germans renamed into “Litzmannstadt”. They are made using parts of captured British equipment items. These British equipment items where left in 1940 when the (BEF) British Expeditionary Force evacuated to the United Kingdom. The Germans sent this British equipment to Litzmannstadt for recycling and a lot of work was put in disassembling every British equipment piece and recycling the individual parts into German army equipment. Y-straps, A-frames and rucksacks are a few of the items made in Litzmannstadt. Very nice original M31 breadbag!

A rare Hautentgiftungsmittel box with all contents. Rare to encounter with the red pressed paper box and the remains of the original label on the flask!

Textbook chocolate brown Luftwaffe issue mapcase in good condition. The mapcase still features some original pencils. The mapcase is sadly unmarked but the chocolate brown leather is typical for Luftwaffe issued equipment. Very nice original example!

A very nice original Kartenwinkelmesser 140 (K.W. 140) complete with its original blue fabric pouch in excellent condition. The Kartenwinkelmesser is nicely marked cme which indicates production by Gebr. Wichmann. These where used to read angles on maps in a 6400 mills scale. Perfect example!

Textbook pre war short gasmask strap in very good condition.

Textbook pre war short gasmask strap in good, used condition. This example has a loose leather reinforcement.

Rare Waffen-SS jerrycan by Sandrik in used as found condition. The Jerrycan is a typical example with the large SS runes stamped in the left body of the canister. The Jerrycan still retains a large portion of its original factory underneath the field applied two-tone camouflage paint!

Textbook original A-frame in good, used condition. The A-frame features all the original straps and is in untouched condition. All parts are still functional. One loop of the messkit strap is torn. Nice untouched example!

Textbook pre war Luftwaffe issue M31 breadbag in very good, used condition. The breadbag is a typical pre war example with high quality leather and aluminium hardware. The breadbag is nicely marked L.B.A. 37 which indicates this example has been accepted for use within the Luftwaffe in 1937. The breadbag features a small name label which reads; “Haas”. Very nice pre war Luftwaffe issue example!

Rare red steel carbide lantern in excellent condition. This is probably one of the last types manufactured. This is the same pattern as the tan examples but it differentiates with a further simplification by omitting the front removable shade. Very hard to find example in good condition!

Textbook late war manufactured webbing Y-straps in excellent, most likely unissued condition. The front straps are manufactured out of webbing and the back strap is manufactured out of leather, a typical late war mixture of materials. The back strap features a so-called late war simplified skeleton hook and the strap is nicely marked RBNr. 0/0390/0204. Perfect late war Y-straps which would be impossible to upgrade!

Textbook late war long gasmask strap in unissued condition. The strap is a nice green coloured example with rubber reinforced point. The strap is nicely marked ebd 43 which indicates production by an unknown manufacturer. Textbook late war example which would be hard to upgrade!

I have multiple straps in stock, all in unissued condition, the price is naturally for one example!

Rare, early gas protection cape or Gasplane dated 1940. These pre war examples are very hard to find nowadays. The cape comes in a very nice early rubberized pouch.

Tall M38 gasmask canister in good condition with green rubber gasmask. There is a small tear in the gasmask which I have photographed. The canister is in good complete condition and would be hard to upgrade!
