Exceptional named and early pre war 1935 dated M35 double decal Heer helmet marked NS66 indicating production by Vereinigte Deutsche Nikelwerke, Schwerte. The skirt of the helmet is bears the lot number E10 which is one of the lowest lot numbers I’ve encountered. The non-reinforced early pattern Schuberth liner is dated 1935 on the band ánd the round marking on the leather. The helmet retains its originally attached liner and chinstrap marked G. Schiele Loburg 1937. The rim on the helmet is the typical early production with the hand rolled rim. The rear skirt of the shell retains multiple unit markings. One being 11./J.R.10 indicating 11. Kompanie Infanterie Regiment 10. The other marking is also named to Oberschütze Panitz 5./J.R.101. Both these units took part of the Polenfeldzug in 1939 and the Westfeldzug in 1940. The helmets exterior bears two Heer decals with the national three-color partially period removed as ordered in 1940. The helmet retains up to 90% of its original factory paint.

The helmet was recently recovered in household clearance in the area of Dresden which perfectly matches the unit marking inside the skirt. Infanterie regiment 10 was renamed into Infanterie Regiment Dresden in 1935. The helmet has never been in a collection before – very hard to find a real early war combat helmet like this one which both survived the Polenfeldzug in 1939 and the Westfeldzug in 1940! A perfect helmet for a 1940 combat mannequin, this helmet is really a nice textbook example of a pre war combat helmet, this helmet has it all!

A original German army issue blanket. These blankets where issued and used members of the Heer and Waffen-SS. The importance of blankets in a war is very underestimated and where more then often the only comfort a soldier would have.

This blanket is in used condition, it has a rip and the ends are fraying a bit. None the less, this is a original Wehrmacht issue blanket that would be perfect for a personal effects display and very nice correctly folded or strapped onto a Tornister or Rucksack!

Stunning mint condition tropical A-frame complete with all three(!) straps. Nicely maker marked and in perfect condition. Very hard to upgrade!

Rare pre war Czech M34 helmet that was reissued in the Luftschutz. The helmet is in very good condition with over 95% paint and decal. The liner is also in lightly worn condition and nicely named to Frau G. Schäfer in the dome. The helmet has its single Luftschutz decal applied to the side in mint condition. These helmets are very rare, especially a blue one in good condition!

Very rare late war Presstoff container for the Bakelite 6×30 Dienstglas. Nicely marked CXN 4 in mint/unissued condition. Hard to find case!

Very nice Heer M40 pattern breadbag. This pattern made in the light green cloth but made with the leather reinforcement at the belt loops was only made for a short period in 1940.

A nice early first pattern mouse grey wool Waffen-SS pattern reversible parka trousers. The garment is in good used condition with some damages and staining. The garment features most of its originally sewn buttons. The garment is a large size and by no means to small for a modern mannequin! A nice set of combat worn parka trousers for a first pattern grey Waffen-SS parka !

A scarcely encountered Gebirgsjäger specific 1 liter capacity canteen or Labeflasche. These canteens where fitted with a carabiner hook on the back so that it could be worn on the carrying sling but also on the breadbag.  These 1 liter Gebirgsjäger Labeflaschen with both the harness and the hook are very hard to find!

Scarce mint set of three original equipment straps made by J. De Valk Amsterdam. Foreign made uniforms and equipment are highly sought after, especially Dutch made items!

The binoculars come with its original case nicely maker marked and dated 1935 which is extremely early. The case comes with its original long carrying strap and the short buckle end. The set is exceptional and a fine example of a pre war 6×30 Dienstglas that would be impossible to upgrade.

Very nice originally mounted battledress grouping of Sergeant Frankovitch, Princess Patricias Canadian Light Infantry. The Battledress comes with his awards and a German mapcase, also named to Sergeant Frankovitch. The battledress retains all of its wartime sewn insignia and was period tailor altered with a zipper. This is a very nice, wartime mounted battledress. The medal bar shows The 1939-1945 Star, The Italy Star, France and Germany Star, The Defense Medal, Canadian Volunteer Service Medal, War Medal 1939-1945 and the Canadian forces decoration. The battledress and grouping would be a great display as is, and a great base for further research!

Stunning early tombak Luftwaffe Observer badge or Beobachtungsabzeichen. The badge is a superb early example made out of heavy tombak. Typical early unmarked Assmann example in stunning condition.
