SOLD ITEMS

A standard pre war, tall gasmask and canister. Complete with its original straps and mask in untouched condition. It is named inside the lid with pencil but it’s hard to read what exactly. A nice and desirable set with most of its original paint, straps and accessories that is hard to find these days.

A very nice mint M42 canteen marked MN43 indicating production by Menesa Metallindustrie GmbH. Neunkirchen-Saar. 

A nice minty set both marked LLG Thüringen 1942. A matching set, perfect for that minty equipment setup!

Salty original SE64 M40 three-tone Normandy camouflage helmet. The helmet is marked SE64 indicating production by Sächsische Emaillier und Stanzwerke A.G. The helmet retains up to 85% of its original camouflage paint. The helmet retains its original liner and (broken) chinstrap. The helmet is a very attractive camouflage example of tan, green and brown and seems to have another tan camouflage layer under the three tone camouflage. The helmet is in good used condition, surely a combat veteran!

A nice original pair of M44 shoulderstraps in very good condition. Textbook late war construction in late brownish wool. Rayon piped for  Artillerie. A rare late war pair!

A nice original pair of MP40 magazine pouches marked CLG44 in good unissued condition.

A nice early M31 messkit marked HRE40 indicating production by Heinrich Ritter, Esslingen and nicely named to Hans Funk. Still retaining up to 90% of its original factory paint!

A nice pre war 1939 dated equipment belt in true mint condition. Nicely sized 90. A pre war equipment belt thats never been blackened!

A nice late war pioneer Sturmgepäck worn together with the two small side pouches this is the rarest of the three pouches as worn by Pioniertruppen. The pouch is in mint/unissued condition!

A very rare gaberdine M43 tunic in near mint condition. The tunic is a nice large size that will easily fit most modern mannequins. The tunic has not been shortened, nor has its pockets been sewn flat. The breast eagle is the original factory sewn example and has never been removed or restored from the tunic. The litzen of the tunic have sadly been removed but the tunic comes with a spare set. Gaberdine EM tunics are very rare as most where converted to officers tunics. The tunic would be easily paired with a gaberdine Keilhosen that are easily findable. A very rare tunic in great condition!

A very nice original belt sized 105 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. Nice late variation belt!

These straps where issued to MG crews and assisted in carrying the MG34 and MG42 ammunition boxes. The material is strong and in good used condition. These straps are hard to come by and would display nicely with a pair of ammunition boxes.

Possibly the rarest of Waffen-SS Zeltbahns is this type in Blurred Edge or Rauchtarnmuster camouflage. The Zeltbahn is in strong used condition and has some clear wear to it. There are a few holes here and there, there are a few buttons missing.

A very nice tan camouflaged ammunition box for the MG34 and MG42. As the Germans occupied Czechoslovakia they took over most of their military stocks including weapons and equipment. This box for the Czech ZB 37 machine gun or MG 37 (t) originally had a slope welded inside to stack the ZB ammunition properly. This slope was removed by the Germans and the leftover holes filled in prior to a tan repaint.

A rare box to encounter in very good condition with most of the wartime tan camouflage!

A textbook Wehrmacht issue torch in nice used condition. Nicely dated 1943 and executed in field grey paint.

Complete set of gas warning flags with 15 flags and tape. Hard to find complete set with its original cloth pouch marked gdn. 

Hard to find in used condition. Nice original A-frame messkit strap. A A-frame in used condition is easily found, but finding a matching used strap is hard!

A fantastic third pattern paratrooper jump smock or Knochensack in combat worn condition. The smock is complete with original factory sewn breast eagle on a Grünmeliert base and all originally sewn buttons. The smock was a war trophy to a US soldier who brought it home after the war. After that it has been in a single collection for a very long time. The garment is in uncleaned, unaltered condition which is a rare condition to find. There are some small holes and two, in my opinion period “depot” repairs with zigzag stitching. The inside of the smock has some stains in various tints of brown. The press studs are lightly rusted or in working condition. Two of the zippers are in working condition, two are damaged through time. On the back portion a small 3 is stamped, inside, on the back of the left top pocket a faint RBNR can be seen. The size is a medium, which would fit most old hindsgaul mannequins easily. Other then the mint condition smocks on the market or those without insignia, this one is a actual battle worn smock that still retains the character of war. The smock is a perfect example of a smock that saw action.

A nice pair of shoulderstraps for a eastern volunteer in the ROA or Russian Liberation Army. These where worn by “volunteers” who joined the Wehrmacht as early as directly after the opening of the Ostfront and the invasion of Russia. Their numbers grew to a staggering 0.5 million in the end of 1941 only to grow bigger during the duration of the war. These Russian troops where stationed all over the third Reich; a mere 20.000 where captured by the Americans in the weeks after D-day. The shoulder boards are in very good, only lightly worn condition. Found together!
