A very nice brown bakelite case for the 6×30 Dienstglas. The case is complete with leather support straps on the back. The case is in very good clean condition.

Awesome 3D image book with period 3D goggles. A propaganda masterpiece giving the viewer a three dimensional view at the western campaign in 1940. The book is still in its original shipping box and retains its original paper cover. Der Kampf im Westen is reasonably scarce, but I’ve never seen a example still in the original box. The set is complete with instructions, 3D goggles, box, paper cover and most if not all of the 100 pictures. A stunning set, typical for the era!

One of the rarest bits of German army equipment. A stunning pair of 6×30 Dienstglas binoculars marked CXN indicating production by Emil Busch. The binoculars have clear lenses without scratches. The binoculars still retain all of their zinc and bakelite without any serious defects. The binoculars are nicely adjustable. They lack the Strichplatte and the sight is very slightly double and clear, nice to use! One of the metal rings on the bottom is missing. They are fitted with a adjustable strap that is affixable to two sets of bales on the reverse of the main body. I have added two pictures of these type of binoculars in use. Bakelite binoculars can be seen on the left hand side of the picture worn by the Unterscharführer in Kampfgruppe Knittel at the Kaiserbaracke crossroads. The straps are original and exactly the type that should be on this binocular. The binoculars are complete with the original issued case marked CXN.

A very rare pair of binoculars in very good condition!

Hard to upgrade non-matching(!) bayonet marked 43 clc indicating production by Richard Abr. Herder, Solingen. The bayonet is non-matching to its scabbard with the serial c 9009 and has nice clean wooden grips. The bayonet is in very good uncleaned and non-matching(!) condition.

A very nice example of a tropical Heer belt buckle by Gustav Brehmer as intended for wear with members of the Afrikakorps. Marked and dated under the prongs GB 40 surely the earliest tropical belt buckle I have seen!

Wehrmacht foldable radio operators stool or Funker Klappstuhl. These foldable stools where used by with map tables and radio operators. This small stool is great for a mannequin display and works perfectly fine. The canvas is strong and can support a grown man. The canvas is nicely marked with a 3 digit code and a square Waffenamt in red. Scarce!

Hard to upgrade matching bayonet marked Jos Corts 37 indicating production by Josua Corts Sohn, Remscheid. The bayonet is matching to its scabbard with the serial 4636d and has nice clean wooden grips. Jos. Corts marked bayonets are one of the rarest K98 bayonets! The bayonet is in very good, uncleaned, unsharpened and matching (!) condition.

Superb original M43 field blouse for a Heer infantry EM. The tunic is mint, and retains all of its originally factory sewn insignia. The base material is a coarse Italian wool and lined with grey rayon. The size is a nice medium fitting most modern mannequins. The breast eagle is factory sewn, not through the lining. The Litzen are also factory sewn, no traces of previously sewn examples. The tunic comes with a nice matching pair of original infantry shoulderstraps. The tunic has not been shortened or tailored in any way. The tunic has multiple size markings; the usual sizes but also a additional stamp indicating the wearers height. The original factory chalk markings for the material cutter are still visible. Also the red chalk markings for the buttons and holes are still visible. More then likely this tunic was never ever worn! This is a superb and mint M43 field blouse, a typical garment as issued and worn by members of the Heer in the Wehrmacht. Every detail is textbook and finding a better example would be impossible!

Rare original Luftwaffe tropical pith helmet in very good condition. The helmet is complete with both its originally attached insignia and chinstrap. The helmet is a nice big size 60 and marked CNY 42 indicating production by C. Pose, Wehrausrüstungen, Berlin. 

Typical late war helmet chinstrap in good unissued condition. Unmarked late war original example.

Rare early Erel Sonderklasse crusher cap or Knautschmütze. The cap is a nice size 57 and in good used condition. The cap is made by Erel which is one of the most well known cap producers. The cap was on display in La Gleizes December 1944 Museum for over 20 years. The sweatband in the cap was replaced at some point because it is heavily worn. Inside the caps liner one can see a large amount of stains showing the character of the cap which was obviously heavily worn throughout the war. The insignia to the front of the cap are nicely handsewn. The cap has been discussed on the Wehrmacht-Awards forum. A rare infantry crusher cap that would make a great addition to any combat officers display!

A nice original mapcase marked R.Z.f.H. 7 1942 indicating production by Reichs Zentrale für Handwerkslieferungen. The mapcase is manufactured from smooth black leather and comes with a set of supposedly found with this mapcase pencils. Inside the closing flap the name R. Cometti can be seen.

Nice original British ’37 pattern entrenchment tool dated 1943 in mint condition.

A nice set exactly as would be issued to a G43 rifleman. One magazine pouch for two G43 magazines and one pouch for additional stripper clips for reloading. As the war progressed and materials became scarce it meant that the G43 was issued with only two magazines and one pouch from the start. Both pouches are nicely maker marked and are in the same unissued condition!

A nice pair in unissued condition marked RBNr. 0/0575/0122. The pouches are in good condition with all dividers intact.

A nice original Wehrmacht Schlauschal or Oma or toque in good unissued condition.

Nice M40 service blouse for a Hauptfeldwebel der Infanterie. The tunic was period modified by a tailor adding a green collar, shoulderstraps and a flatwire breast eagle. The tunic has two award loops and a ribbon bar for the Eisernez Kreuz II, Ostmedaille and Sudetenmedaille. The tunic has a few small repairs and one or two moth nips in a shoulder strap. Otherwise a very clean and neat example of a nice NCO tunic with wartime sewn insignia!

A very nice LP34 in working condition. The LP34 still has the full anodization finish and never has been repainted. The finish still remains for 99% and this is the nicest LP34 flare gun I’ve ever owned.  The LP34 is marked DUV 43 which indicates production by Berlin Luebecker. The gun has very nice speckled brown grips and is probably one of the last LP34’s produced in aluminum. All in all a very nice aesthetic piece with a superb finish!

The flare pistol is in good working condition and free to own anyone older then 18 in the Netherlands. I will not and can not export this piece outside of the Netherlands.
