Equipment

A nice wartime torch in good used condition. Rare variant in blue paint. Nice personal effect, awesome on a mannequin!

Excellent and extremely rare set of side pouches for combat pioneers. The bag features extremely rare and hardly ever encountered dark green coarse webbing straps. These straps have only been encountered at these combat pioneer pouches, mp44 pouches or canteens as far as my knowledge goes. All by all equipment which features this dark green coarse webbing is extremely rare and highly sought after by collectors. The set is in very good condition, it has one small repair and the long back straps has been reattached at some point. One of the two pouches features an ink stamp from postwar Czech storage, but these bags definitely belong to each other. The atypical construction of this pouch with a range of different materials including the dark green coarse webbing makes this set impossible to upgrade. For sure one of the best sets of combat pioneer pouches I have ever offered!

Rare Pioneer tool pouch manufactured out of black pressstoff complete with rare coarse webbing carrying strap. The tool pouch was issued to carry fuze setters, crimp tools and some other small items. The tool is nicely marked dob 1941 which indicates production by a still unidentified manufacturer. The pouch is in worn, untouched condition and is hard to find!

Rare late war manufactured thin rubber gascape or Gasplane in very good condition. The gascape is a rare late war manufactured example made out of very thin rubber material which you can almost see through. The gas cape has one small damage as can be seen. Hard to find a loose gascape and not just the pouch, perfect to fill up the pouch with an original gascape! Very hard to upgrade late war manufactured example!

Waffen-SS plane tree Zeltbahn in 6/6 overprint camouflage in good used condition. One of the corners has a period depot style repair. The sides are all finished fully in Blurred Edge camouflage. The Zeltbahn retains its vibrant colours and is a very nice display piece. Hard to upgrade!

Textbook late war matching set of lightgrey coloured gasmask canister straps with rubberized or rubber reinforced point. The straps are nicely marked ebd 44 which indicates production Patra A.-G., Erzeugung techn. Gummiwaren, Napajedl/Mähren. These straps are rare to find as a marching set. Hard to upgrade set!

Excellent pre war aluminium single tent peg in very good condition. The tent peg is nicely marked S&C 34 which indicates production by an unknown manufacturer 1934. The peg is original and complete with its factory attached cord!

Excellent pre war aluminium single tent peg in very good condition. The tent peg is nicely marked RS 36 which indicates production by an unknown manufacturer 1936. The peg is original and complete with its factory attached cord!

Pre war set of three matching aluminium tent pegs in very good condition. The tent pegs are nicely marked GA 38 which indicates production by an unknown manufacturer in 1938. All pegs are original and complete with its factory attached cord!

Long pre war gasmask canister strap dated 1938 in excellent, near mint condition. Hard to find!

Tall M38 gasmask canister set dated 1938 with green canvas size 3 mask in good used condition!

A very rare tropical Gasplane in unissued/mint condition. The gasplane is nicely marked pcd. Ope 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!

Nice original Gasplane in unissued/mint condition. The gascape is nicely marked aqd which indicates production by a still unidentified manufacturer. Hard to find a loose gascape and not just the pouch, perfect to fill up the pouch with an original gascape!

Rare green rubber gascape or Gasplane in very good condition. The gascape is nicely marked aqd which indicates production by a still unidentified manufacturer. Hard to find a loose gascape and not just the pouch, perfect to fill up the pouch with an original gascape! This is only the second time I have encountered a green rubber gascape, very hard to upgrade!

Rubberized gascape pouch with button closure in unissued condition. The gascape pouch is in unissued and uncleaned condition. The pouch shows a lot of original talc powder which was used for long term storage. I have a small quantity of these gascape pouches in stock; the price is naturally for one and I will always pick out a nice example. There are several different maker markings but all are made of rubber and have a regular button closing method. The pouches can be a bit wrinkled but could easily be cleaned with a damp cloth or displayed as is. Nice unissued example!

Rare early pattern Luftwaffe issue wrist compass Armkompass LK10. This is the rare and early model which was manufactured prior to the AK39 pattern. The compass is in good and working condition with its often missing original strap. The base material of the compass is in good, clear condition but sadly the back features a crack. Rare and desirable Armkompass!

Rare Panzer school training and recognition wooden Sd. Kfz. 171 Panther Ausf. This model once was used in the barracks of a Panzer school where it was used to indicate armor thickness, maneuverability and maintenance. This model is fully handcrafted out of wood with several small moving parts. The machingegun rotates in its ball-turret, as does the large turret with the main gun elevating. The driver viewport can be opened or closed. The front fenders can be tilted upwards. The wheels are all moving and the tracks are intact. One of the two rear crew stowage compartments on the rear has been professionally restored. The original factory tan paint is fully remaining. Some models were made with paper labels underneath or with stamped markings of it being army property. The Panzerkampfwagen VI Panther Ausf. A is a iconic piece that would be a centre piece in any Panzer collection. The Panther retains most of its original details, wheels and accessories. This example is a double out of my personal collection. Most of these are incomplete or classed as scrap iron Panzer wrecks; this one is ready for display. Out of all the Panzer recognition models this is probably the most sought after model that would nicely display with Panzer Wraps or Panzerkampfabzeichen!

I can ship this piece in a good, sturdy double layer box with the turret removed from the hull. I will take great care if I do but pickup is an option.

M44 rucksack in blue canvas with webbing straps. Not to be confused with a Luftwaffe issue rucksack; this one was meant to be issued to the Heer, Waffen-SS, Luftwaffe and the Kriegsmarine. Nice late war variant in used condition!
