Militaria

Nice original second pattern butterdish manufactured out of speckled brownish material. The butterdish is a bit damaged and features a crack and a repair. Only the lid of this set is marked A1/K. Nice second pattern with fine thread and gripped bottom.

German mapcase ruler Esero Planzeiger. With this ruler a soldier could easily read distances on a map and find out how long something would take. This example is nicely marked and manufactured by the well known company Esero and complete with the original paper bag. This is a key piece inside of any mapcase!

A nice original Model 9 Esbit stove in good condition. The Esbit itself is marked DRP and Stuttgart W indicating it was produced pre 1943 when the original factory was bombed to the ground. A nice and typical ‘pocket litter’ item which was often found with the troops fighting at the front lines!

First pattern orange butterdish marked 79 S in good condition.

Clear mapcase insert in good used condition. These where issued with map cases and used to keep maps dry in the rain and folded on the right place. These where also used to draw on to the smooth transparent surface to keep the maps unmarked. This example is nicely marked R. Ehrhardt, Poessneck 1936. Nice pre war example!
