Exceptional original Waffen-SS officers belt and buckle by Emil Jüttner. The belt and buckle are in equal good, lightly worn condition and where found together. The buckle is a very nice example with most of its silver wash remaining and a typical example by Emil Jüttner. The belt is a very good size 109 fitting most if not all mannequins. The belt and buckle are a very nice set that would be very hard to upgrade.

A stunning Heer M36 EM Feldbluse in mint/unissued condition. The tunic is not shortened or restored in any way. The green Einheitslitzen are period factory sewn to the collar. The breast eagle is period factory  sewn on the top, flipped and finished. The tunic comes with a set of wool piped M36 type EM infantry shoulder straps  in mint condition that have been with the tunic. This is really a stunning textbook EM M36 tunic in mint condition, surely the best one I’ve ever had to offer!

Nice original award document for a Iron Cross second class to Hauptfeldwebel Max Boog, Füsilier Battalion 276.  Signed by Generalleutnant Kurt Badinski. The 276 Infanterie Division took part in the heavy battles in Normandy and this one was most probably awarded there.

Rare original SS Leitheft of Februar 1943. Rare example with the Totenkopfring on the front! Very decorative item!

The Italian army messkit (Gavetta Modello 1930) was a commonly seen item within the German army. Prior to re-issue in the German army they where mostly painted green by the Germans. This Italian messkit is the best one I’ve ever seen!

A exceptionally nice matching numbers bayonet with frog marked W.K.C.  indicating production by WKC Waffenfabrik G.m.b.H., Solingen-Wald. The bayonet is in near mint unsharpened and uncleaned condition with most of the original blueing remaining.

Very nice original map of Roermond but globally Limburg area.

A very nice pre war complete M38 gasmask. The mask is complete with all straps, filter, mask, cleaning cloth and decontamination tablets. Very nice pre war example with 90% of its original paint remaining!

Very nice original first pattern Danziger skull. Both prongs on the back are intact. Very nice and decorative insignia.

Very nice original heavy wooden tripod for the Scherenfernrohr 14. Whilst the optics itself are fairly easy to obtain, it is extremely hard to find in full original condition. Perfect for display and in good working condition.

Nice original named belt and buckle by Gebr. Kugel & Fink. The buckle is nicely named to Klemm Feldw. (Feldwebel).

Very nice original Luftwaffe Kanaljacke. The jacket is in very good condition and is without damages or repairs. Both the plastic RiRi zippers on the sleeves and the brass Zipper in the middle are in great working condition. The jacket is in very good condition and would be very hard to upgrade!

Very nice and decorative shoulderstraps for a Hauptfeldwebel in a Fallschiurmjäger unit. The straps have a nice pair of red loops most probably for a Offiziersanwarter.

Two original maps showing the area between Leningrad and Novgorod. The place where some of the fiercest battles on the eastern front where fought. The maps are drawn onto and show the HKL or HauptkampfLinie. Very hard to find original maps of Leningrad with drawn in positions and most interestingly; the maps are interlinked. They can be placed on top of each other with a interlinking line of positions.

Impressive death card to Georg Schmerold, Obergefreiter and Gruppenführer in a Fallschirmjäger-Panzerjäger unit. Killed in action 17th of January 1945 as a member of the 14. Kompanie of Fallschirmjäger Regiment 9.

Schmerold‘s death is mentioned in Opfergang Deutsche Fallschirmjäger – Rudi Frühbeisser page 290; Nördlich von Iveldingen im Bereich der 13. Kp. kommt es zu einem schweren Rückzugsgefecht. Der Kp.-Chef Obltn. Schenk kann den ständig anstürmenden Amerikaner nicht lange aufhalten. Der alter Ogfr. Scharanowski fällt dabei. 17 Mann unter ihnen der Fähnrich Max Ursprung werden vermißt. Bei der 14. Kompanie, die an die 13. Kompanie anschließt, fällt der Jäger Bach während des Angriffs durch Herzschuß und Obergefreiter Schmerold durch Kopfschuß. Aus den Rückzugsbewegungen ist zu ersehen, daß der Amerikaner unbedingt in Schoppen eindringen will. 800 Meter westlich von Schoppen an der Straße nach Faymontville liegt genau gegenüber der Höhe 548 links eine kleine Waldparzelle. Dort wird der angreifende Amerikaner aber von der “Kampfgruppe Schenk” abgewehrt.

Schmerold was killed by a bullet to the head at 26 years of age.

Nice original photograph depicting two Waffen-SS Officers one wearing the incredibly rare cufftitle of SS-Ärztliche Akademie. The photograph is sized 7x10cm.
