One of the rarest accessories to any Wehrmacht artillery piece, for sure always missing! These lanyards with a pullweight where attached to the breech of the gun to create a safe space between the breech and the gunner. The breech would fly back with a high velocity breaking anything in its path such as limbs. Firing a artillery piece live without one would result in heavy injuries. The weight is nicely marked bzo indicating production by J. F. Kayser, Maschinenfabrik, Nürnberg-O. For sure one of the rarest items I’ve had to offer!

A stunning speckled brown bakelite 6×30 binocular case. Later in the war when the Germans ran out of pigment for bakelite they switched over to different fillers. Sawdust was one of the filling materials used, creating a interesting speckled finish. The brown bakelite dienstglas containers where mostly found with tan 6×30 binoculars. The case is in very good, undamaged condition and has a very aesthetic and vibrant light brown colour which would nicely attribute a late war uniform setup.

This “Mica Wirtschaftkasten” was one of the most luxuous pieces of private purchase pocket litter. This set was commonly gifted to sons going to war, bought by officers or bought at barracks stores.

The short part of the chinstrap is loose but comes with the helmet. The helmet retains up to 90% of its thick wartime applied camouflage paint. The thick textured vehicle camouflgage paint is often referred to as Rautarn or even Zimmerit and is topped with a stunning three-tone Normandy camouflage pattern that also covers the skirt of the helmet internally.

Rare late war brown leather carbine holding belt or Karabinertragevorrichtung nicely marked qdv 44 and RBNR. These belt loops where worn on the back between the bayonet and the breadbag. One of the hardest accessories to find with a cavalry display. Rather impossible really!
