A stunning original early compass with pouch. The compass is nicely ID’ed with Kopierstift or copying pencil to Leutnant Barking 36937. 36937 indicates Leutnant Barkings unit Regimentsstab Artillerie-Regiment 253.
The early compasses with pouch are hard to find!

A very nice original belt, roughly sized 95 centimeters suitable for most mannequins! The belt is a late war type designed to save raw materials. The belt has been made of the typical material used for shovel carriers and so on. Hard to upgrade!

A original short handled pioneer shovel with cover both dated 1940. The shovel and its cover are both in very good original condition. The shovel is nicely marked AB&C 1940 indicating production by A. Bredt & Co., Witten. These short handled shovels where what the pioneers carried into the field, the long handled shovels have the same blade but are originally meant for vehicles. The short handled E-tool comes with the original presstoff cover in very good condition. The cover is nicely marked inside Offenbach 1940. These short shovels and their short covers are very hard to find!

A early mapcase in good condition with the original contents in as found condition. It comes with a map cover, pencils in multiple colours, a eraser and a pencil sharpener. All items where found with the mapcase. A nice used mapcase with character!

A nice original combat worn and textbook Splittertarn cover. Nicely marked SS 204 and in good condition. The cover is photographed on a size 62 helmet shell but a size 60 would fit better. These helmet covers where issued to a lot of different units later in the war but one of the most prominent early adaptors was the Grossdeutschland division. This cover has been assembled using double and single needle sewing machines.

Scarce to find helmet cover!

A nice Pelzjacke, as used by many members of the Heer and Waffen-SS on the eastern front. Marked on the front with a RB number and another unreadable stamp.  In very good condition, great for a mannequin.

A nice ESB 42 marked M31 labeflasche in unissued condition. The canteen, strap and cover are nicely marked ESB 42 indicating production by Eduard Sommerfeld, Berlin. The canteen si in good unissued condition but the leather is a bit dry. A great unissued canteen!

A nice prewar brown leather mapcase named to Feldwebel Kranthan in good used condition.

Recently found in houseclearing in Germany, a uncleaned, untouched early tropical bayonet with frog. The bayonet is nicely marked ffc 41 indicating production by Friedrich Herder Abr.Sohn, Solingen. A true DAK piece that has never been in a collection before!

A very nice document commemorating the battles and struggles of the Leibstandarte up to 1942. This document is a part of a picture map containing images of the Leibstandarte. This document however, was picked out and most probably carried in a Soldbuch. It’s a very nice original document to frame in a collection room. Rare to encounter separately!

A very nice pre war messkit marked SMM28 indicating production by Süddeutsche Metallwarenfabrik, Mussbach in 1928. This is the first inter war period messkit I’ve found. It still retains up to 80% of its original grey paint.

A very nice 1940 dated MG34 spare parts box or E-Kasten. This box would have been filled with a variety of spare parts. On the top it is marked with “E” for Ersatzteilkasten. The box is in very nice condition with most of its wartime factory applied paint. On the side it is marked Lafettekasten f. MG34 indicating that this was the spare parts box for a MG34 on a Lafette or tripod. The box remains all of its leather tabs and is imo a stunning example. Hard to upgrade!

Hard to find spare chinstrap with aluminium buckle and nicely 1940 dated. Great for a M36 helmet!

A nice original combat worn and textbook Splittertarn cover. Nicely marked SS 204 and in good condition. The cover is photographed on a size 64 helmet shell but a size 62 would fit a bit better. These helmet covers where issued to a lot of different units later in the war but one of the most prominent early adaptors was the Grossdeutschland division. Scarce to find helmet cover that was left behind in Middelburg, the Netherlands after the war.

A nice matching canteen marked C&CW 36 indicating production by Colsmann & Co, Werdohl in 1936. The canteen has all the parts marked C&CW 36, a nice and matching pre war canteen that would be hard to upgrade!

A very nice Waffen-SS Zeltbahn with nice bright colours. The Plane tree overprint is a nice and rare camouflage type. The Zeltbahn is in very used condition with some of its originally sewn buttons. The Zeltbahn has a few holes and damages to the stitching near the headhole. Other then that it’s a very nice display piece and would very nicely decorate a mannequin!

A very nice complete gasmask with its original straps and most of its original paint remaining. Hard to find in this condition! The canister is nicely named to Paul G. Hard to upgrade!
