SOLD ITEMS

These late war Italian made boots where issued and worn throughout units in the Heer and especially in the Waffen-SS who reissued many Italian type uniforms. These boots would be perfect for a late war mannequin. The boots are in good, unworn condition and would be very hard to upgrade!

A nice minty and matching M31 Labeflasche marked G&CL 43 indicating prodution by Gehardi & Co, Lüdenscheid. Hard to upgrade tropical canteen in mint condition!

Typical Wehrmacht issue flashlight in good, unissued condition. Nicely finished in blue grey paint.

A very nice late war Enamelled M42 messkit in good, lightly used condition. The messkit still retains most of its original enameling and is a typical late war messkit in very good condition!

Heavy fully lined Kriegsmarine or Küstenartillerie guard coat or Wachmantel in very good condition. This garment was recently discovered in a cloth processing plant and has never been in a collection before. It’s missing one button on the shoulder and has a few moth holes. Otherwise a very nice garment in lightly worn condition. The coat is fully lined with thick sheepskin creating a very good insulation for the sometimes arctic temperatures at for instance many of the Küstenartillerie batteries in Norway. Hard to find!

A nice grouping that was found in the household of Heinz Preissing several years ago. The grouping consists of a M40 tunic and a Soldbuch with a large amount of paperwork. Also there is a nice large picture of Heinz, sitting next to his equipment. The M40 tunic has its factory machine sewn litzen and breast eagle. The breast eagle is machine sewn, then folded flat and finished by hand. The shoulder boards retain the cyphers for Gebirgsjäger Regiment 98. The Unteroffizierstresse is machine sewn to the collar. The Gebirgsjäger Edelweiss is handsewn. The breast pocket has 4 sets of wartime sewn loops for awards and a small spange above it. The tunic is not shortened or tailored but has several wartime machine sewn repairs. The Soldbuch has many, many entries and a picture in the front. Heinz carried a French or Dutch pistol with 16 rounds of ammunition. He entered service in 1938. Heinz was awarded the Verwundetenabzeichen Im Schwarz in 1941. The Soldbuch corresponds with the Erkennungsmarke. Heinz was a part of the Staff of the unit, possibly later in the war he was the Zahlmeister.

Gebirgsjäger Regiment 98 was one of the first units to enter Poland in 1939. Then following up in the 1940 campaign attacked France, moving through Luxembourg. More information on the unit here.

Although the grouping could bring more if split up, I have no wish to split this group up. The grouping is large and has lots of research possibilities. I wish I had more time to go more into the paperwork; its really a interesting group!

Rare German made holster for the P.37(u) Femaru. The holster is constructed from a mix of webbing and leather. These holsters are sometimes referred to as being tropical issue as these first came at the same time with the webbing equipment. The holster is in very good condition and nicely marked cdc 41 indicating production by Kern, Klager u. Co., Lederwaren, Berlin. The holster was also used and worn with the P.27(t).

Complete Presstoff holster with its original sling and cleaning rod. The pouch is nicely marked fuq 1942, and the cleaning rod is marked GL38. The set is in very good lightly used condition. Hard to find complete set!

Nice and typical late war original Y-strap with simplified backstrap in very good condition. The backstrap is typical for a 44/45 production with a gasmask strap hook.

A nice fur issued Heer fur hat in mint condition. Nicely dated 1943 and size 55 which is a common size for the time period. The cap is in good condition and the fur still retains most of its hairs. Can’t be upgraded!

Typical late war unmarked E-tool carrier in mint condition. Typical model which is always found unmarked. Typical late war construction mix of Presstoff and leather. The leather is strong and supple. Perfect for a mannequin! Impossible to upgrade!

A bit dusty but unissued. Textbook, nicely dated and maker marked.

A nice original plane tree 5/6 overprint Waffen-SS Zeltbahn in strong used condition. Nicely marked with number 5 and a manufacturer stamp. The Zeltbahn retains its colours and contrast and some of its originally sewn buttons. The Zeltbahn shows wear and some damages. A very strong used Waffen-SS plane tree zeltbahn with holes and damages. Not the nicest, but a original plane tree zeltbahn priced to sell!

Textbook original Kriegsmarine M42 helmet marked EF64 indicating production by Emaillierwerke Fulda in very good condition.
The helmet retains up to 95% of its original textured field grey paint and golden Kriegsmarine decal. The decal is a Kriegsmarine thin wing type manufactured by Huber Jordan u. Koerner. The top of the decal shows a golden line indicating the decal was manufactured in multiple layers and is a textbook Kriegsmarine helmet. The lot number is also noted in the lot number database as a Single Decal Kriegsmarine helmet. The helmet retains its original liner and chinstrap. Kriegsmarine M42 helmets are very rare, especially in a exceptional condition as this one. I doubt I will find another soon!

A nice textbook pair of pre war tall brown jackboots in good light worn condition. The soles retain all of their hobnails and steel heel pieces. Nice pair for a mannequin!

Rare Kriegsmarine gasmask with microphone attachment. The mask and its filter are named to Graf. Inside the mask is marked with the Kriegsmarine Acceptance stamp. Hard to upgrade complete gasmask with all accessories and markings you’d like to see.

Nice original flag in mint condition 85 x 115 cm. One small damage. Stitched on both sides.

Hard to find wartime issue personal item. These where issued to the troops and are hard to find in good unissued condition as most have been used up postwar. 99% of the troops wore trouser suspenders like these or used their privately purchased examples.

A stunning original M40 Waffen-SS Mantel or overcoat in near mint condition. The mantel is not to be confused with the Heer/Army type; this cut of Mantel is different in shape, cut, marking and is specifically made for the Waffen-SS. The eagle has been removed from the sleeve, other then that its a nice untouched near mint condition Waffen-SS M40 Mantel. There are several small moth holes on the bottom of the coat. These overcoats are very scarce! The mantel is marked 242 which is a specific waffen-ss producer. These overcoats are very scarce!

A very nice original gasmask canister named to a female auxilliary Hanna Brüns 50388. I’ve never seen one named to a Female auxiliary before!
