Beautiful and textbook M35 Heer double decal helmet marked ET62 indicating production by Eisenhuttenwerke Thale. The helmets a textbook pre war example with a factory fitted non-reinforced 1937 dated liner and its early chinstrap. The helmet is unit marked to 14./I.R.69 indicating 14. Kompanie Infanterie Regiment 69. The helmet retains both of its Heer decals up to 85% with minor scratch damage. The helmet is named to Sanitäts-Gefreiter Schuldt. The helmet is a very nice example of a named and unit marked early double decal helmet.

Rare and textbook single vertical Waffen-SS Totenkopf embroided collar tab. This example is in good, as found condition showing age to the skull but is otherwise unissued. The design of the skull is the typical for the RZM 308 ‘long bone’ pattern.
This one was bought by me, straight from the grandson of a Dutch resistance member who collected ‘souvenirs’ at the end of the war in and around the town of Breda. The lot was acquired by me, straight from the family. A textbook example that was never in a collection before and you would never ever have to doubt the authenticity!

Textbook last ditch Dachau type Waffen-SS field cap in Gaberdine material. The cap was originally a US vet bring back and was brought to the SOS several years ago. The cap is of typical last ditch production as seen with items taken from the Dachau stock with the exposed Presstoff bill. The cap is in good worn condition with the right amount of patina. The cap retains a hand sewn Edelweiss and black trapezoid insignia that both share the same patina. The cap is a size 57 which is a perfect size for most modern and older mannequins. The cap is a really nice and dare example of a original Waffen-ss M43 field cap!

Incredible original German white helmet cover named Gefreiter Trekat. The cover is a superb and original period made example in good used condition with loads of character. The cover is photographed on a size 64 shell but can also be fitted to a larger shell. The cover is made out of two pieces of cotton, handsewn around the edge with reinforced apertures for the chinstrap. The cover is named and unit marked Gefreiter Trekat, 4./I.R. 24. indicating 4. Kompanie Grenadier-Regiment 24. This is a superb and very scarce opportunity to acquire a original white helmet cover for a winter display that would be impossible to upgrade.

Fully functional MG42 sustained fire tripod or Lafette, used for direct and indirect fire. The Lafette is a textbook wartime produced example using wartime parts. It’s a early variant marked fsu 1942 indicating production by Excelsior Fahrrad und Motorradwerk, Brandenburg. The Lafette was reissued post war in the Austrian army but still retains most if not all of its wartime components. The Lafette has been repainted; but a quick scratch test reveals that most probably you can reveal most of the original paint that’s still underneath! If you look at the second and third picture you can see what a piece of wood or plastic can do; you can easily clean off the post war paint without much hassle. A really easy restoration! The Lafette retains its original markings, the original Uberschiesstabel and a very low serial of 349 which is 13 numbers away from the earliest found example. This is a great example that would be a great base to clean to reveal its original finish; which is a rare feature to any Lafette!

PLEASE NOTE THAT ADDITIONAL POSTAGE FEES WILL BE CHARGED AFTER ORDERING due to the heavy weight. This will probably be an extra 50 euro for Europe, and 200 for outside of Europe. Pickup in our warehouse in Tampere, Finland is possible.

A original Waffen-SS M40 Oak B(!) camouflage smock or Tarnjacke in combat worn condition. A typical example of a shortened smock as was done a lot with the M40 smocks as they had no lower pockets. The garment has many rips and repairs but retains its stunning bright colours. I’ve added some pictures of similar smocks in wear! The M40 smock in Oak B is one of the rarest M40 smocks out there. This period modified smock is a prime example as a Waffen-SS camouflage smock in combat worn condition!

A nice original mint and textbook Splittertarn cover marked 419 M42. The cover is photographed on a size 66 helmet shell. The cover is unworn and undamaged, the colours are very strong. 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 and later the 21. Panzerdivision in Normandy! Scarce to find a original Splittertarn helmet cover in stone mint condition and most probably the best one I’ve had to offer!

Rare textbook M42 pattern Waffen-SS Keilhosen in very good condition. Typical SS construction with straight cut pockets, wool/rayon leg tie straps and reinforced knees. Very hard to find original Waffen-SS M42 trousers in unissued condition!

Beautiful untouched ZF4 sniper scope with textbook period applied mount. The scope is in clear, useable and adjustable condition. The scope itself is a textbook example marked ddx which indicates production by Voigtlaender u. Sohn AG, Braunschweig. The mount is a gorgeous textbook example marked with the Waffenamt 359 which indicates production by C. Walther, Zella-Mehlis (Walther). The scope is a beautiful and completely functional example that would be a great addition to any G43 with a scope rail!

A stunning late war Waffen-SS Erbsentarn Keilhosen or dot 44 HBT camouflage trousers. In mint condition, without damages. Manufactured later in the war showing signs of last ditch production. One button hole and the leg straps have never been installed. The camouflage on this pair of trousers is very bright with strong colours and don’t show any fading. These would be a perfect(!) colour match to the Erbsentarn tunics marked 0/0793/0101.

Excellent reversible Waffen-SS Oak-A or Eichenlaubmuster camouflage pattern. There are one or two missing buttons and the tie straps on the top are in Blurred Edge camouflage. Excellent example in a good medium mannequin size!

Nice original Waffen-SS ‘spring’ oak leaf reversible parka trousers in good used condition. The trousers retains are in good used condition with strong and vibrant colours. The trousers are a nice large size fitting most if not all mannequins. The trousers are in good used condition with two period repairs on the bottom of the trouser legs. There is a P and W which was once painted to the front of the legs which has been removed and can barely be seen on a mannequin. The trousers are in size 3 which fits most if not all mannequins. A great set that would nicely fit a combat mannequin!
