SOLD ITEMS

Excellent M31 canteen in very good condition. The canteen is marked HRE 41 / HRE 42 which indicates production by Heinrich Ritter, Esslingen, the difference in the dates is IMHO a factory mismatch made in early 1942 with left overs from late 1941. The cup features initials on the top which reads: R G, which could be the initials of a first and last name. The straps are made out of pebbled leather which is rather unusual for an early 1942 manufactured example. Very nice example!

Excellent M31 canteen with brown straps and green painted aluminium cup. These aluminium cups with olive green paint are rather hard to encounter, let alone in combination with nice brown straps! The canteen is marked L&SL 41 / L&SL 42 which indicates production by Linnepe & Schiffer, Lüdenscheid, the difference in the dates is IMHO a factory mismatch made in early 1942 with left overs from late 1941. Very nice untouched canteen with nice features!

Excellent tropical A-frame bag in mint, unissued condition. The bag is nicely marked Wersa, München 1941. Excellent example which would be hard to upgrade!

Textbook 1940 dated Auer communications gasmask in excellent condition.

Excellent M36 style shoulderstraps for a Unteroffizier der Panzergrenadiere. The straps are in perfect condition and feature nice silver tresse and wool piping. Excellent pair which would be hard to upgrade!

For a further understanding in the different examples in belt buckles I have written an article about the subject with 65 different variants to be seen here; https://fjm44.com/articles/a-guide-to-collecting-waffen-ss-belt-buckles/

Textbook Heer buckle marked B&N 43 indicating production by Berg & Nolte in 1943. Textbook Heer buckle in good used condition.

Excellent issued and used Streckenzugtafel or Str. Tfl. A in its original wooden case. The wooden case features the name Ober which is most likely the name of the soldier which used it! The Streckenzugtafel itself seems to be complete. The Streckenzugtafel is nicely marked cme which indicates production by Gebr. Wihcmann. Very nice peace of measuring material which is rather hard to encounter!

Excellent custom painted display mannequin head, handpainted by the Dutch artist handpainted mannequins. The head has very nice painted eyes which are really lifelike.

Rare step-in Fallschirmjäger smock in Splittertarn-B camouflage marked Rudolph Hubert & Cie 1941. The smock is in good, worn condition with repairs to the back. This is a rare, first pattern example with both of its original trouser legs retaining, slightly period shortened. This is a typical modification of the period! The smock retains all of its original Rapid zippers in functional condition. The breast eagle is a early embroided example on a Grünmeliert base which is original to the garment but reapplied. A beautiful example that would be very hard to upgrade!

Textbook Luftwaffe M40 helmet in very good condition. The helmet is marked Q62 indicating production by Quist in the shell size 62. The helmet is complete with its factory installed liner and original chinstrap.

Textbook matching K98 bayonet marked S/245 1936 indicating production by Jetter & Scheerer, Tuttlingen. The bayonet is in very good condition and retains up to 90% of its original factory blueing. The bayonet comes with a original early frog that would be very hard to upgrade!

Excellent issue P38 hardshell holster in excellent condition. The holster is nicely marked cxb 41 which indicates production by Moll, Lederwarenfabrik, Goch, Rheinland in 1941. Very nice example which would look perfect on a mannequin!

Very nice first pattern orange coloured butterdish in overall very good condition. The lid and bottom part are sadly mismatching but the butterdish is found as is. The lid is an interesting example marked with 3 letter code ggj which indicates an unknown manufacturer, encountering 3 letter codes on resin/bakelite items is quite rare! Very nice example!

Excellent late war grey gas cape pouch in unissued condition. These pouches have typical late war features such as red ink markings and blue painted press studs. I have 10 in stock, the price is for 1!

Nice original early manufactured M31 Zeltbahn in Splittertarn camouflage. This is a typical early example with aluminium hardware and this example is also nicely dated 1939, sadly the manufacture is unreadable. The Zeltbahn is in overall good condition but has some stains and minor holes. Nice 1939 dated example!

Textbook non-reversible Sumpftarn parka trousers in very good condition. The trousers are in the so called hard edged ’43 Sumpftarn pattern. The trousers retain their straps, buttons and wooden toggles and would be very hard to upgrade. The trousers are in a nice large size fitting most modern mannequins.
