A very nice surely combat worn smock with strong and vibrant colours and complete with its original face veil!

A stunning M42 canteen marked SMM43 indicating production by Süddeutsche Metallwarenfabrik, Mussbach. The cup is a interesting variation without the small loop for the strap to go through. The cup is dated 1944 indicating production in early 1944. The canteen is unissued and would be very hard to upgrade.

A spectacular full basket M40 single decal chickenwire camouflage helmet. The helmet is marked SE64 indicating production by Sächsische Emaillier und Stanzwerke A.G. The helmet retains its original named liner and broken chinstrap which are original to the helmet. The helmet retains its wartime installed full basket chickenwire camouflage netting which has never been removed from the helmet. The helmet retains up to 80% of its original factory paint and textbook ET Heer decal. The said helmet was bought off a picker in Pennsylvania a few years ago and has only been in a single collection, it hasn’t been posted online anywhere. The helmet and its camouflage netting are a one looker original set. Chickenwire camouflage helmets are highly sought after and are key parts of every helmet collection. Simply a stunning chickenwire camouflage helmet that would be véry hard to upgrade.

Hard to find pre war E-tool marked RH 1938. The E-tool is in good strong condition with clear markings.

Nice textbook example of a Luftwaffe breadbag in very good unissued condition.

Possibly the best pair of M37 lowboots I’ve had to offer. Dated 1939 complete with the pull tabs that where discontinued in 1940. The boots are a nice large mannequin size and are in good supple condition. The boots are complete with their original laces and all eyelets and hooks they should have. The boots where issued to someone with two uneven feet and therefor slightly modified during the war. Most boots that one would find are mid to late war, a pre war pair is very rare to find!

Truly stunning ET64 M35 three-tone on top of a winter white wash camouflage helmet. The helmet is nicely marked ET64 indicating production by Eissenhuttewerke Thale. The helmet is complete with its original liner and chinstrap that are original to the helmet. The helmet retains up to 85% of its original camouflage paint. Looking at the helmet it is obvious the helmets finish consists of several layers of camouflage paint. The base of the helmet is a double decal Luftwaffe M35 helmet with a reinforced aluminum liner and EA 41 marked chinstrap. On top of that externally a winter white wash camouflage. This is covered up with a dark blue Luftwaffe Reissue paint which also sits on the aluminum liner band. This is finished with a three-tone spray paint camouflage paint that is normally referred to as Normandy camouflage. Another feature in these thick layers of paint is that one can see the imprint of a wire or string that once adorned the top of the shell. The helmet was recently found in Norway. The helmet bears a pencil marking on the left side that resembles the Norwegian royal symbol indicating possible resistance use. The helmet is a great example of usage throughout the war, featuring multiple wartime repaints and finally finished in brightly colored and contrastful three-tone camouflage. Finding a better one that “has it all” would be hard!

Nice black leather mapcase marked bml 42 indicating production by Hans Römer, Neu-Ulm. The mapcase is complete with its clear map over and a Meldeblock.
