Incredibly rare original orange bakelite canteen cup. This is a rare opportunity to buy original orange bakelite canteen cup. This example was certainly MPD code marked just like the other examples but the markings are completely faded because of the time in the ground. The MPD code F7/K which was once present indicates production by a still unknown maker and the usage of urea resin (which is a certain type of Bakelite) with an organic filler material. The bakelite surface is affected by the time in the ground and thereby lost its smooth surface and its marking. The cup only has some minor discolorations which could probably be cleaned some more. Beautiful original and very rare example!

This cup was found in Berlin recently together with 12 complete and 5 damaged cups. They were dug up underneath remnants of a concrete floor together with other canteen cups and butterdishes. In 15 years of collecting I’ve only found one example for my personal collection: this is only the second time I’ve been able to acquire one. I have kept 3 cups for my personal collection, other then these there are no other orange cups on the market that I am aware of. Rarer then most Knights Crosses: this is probably the rarest item I have had for sale in the 5 years that fjm44.com has been online!

Excellent example of a Fliegerleuchtpistole L. These flare pistols where used by flying personnel of the Luftwaffe on missions. Nicely marked Ecko indicating production by Emil Eckholdt. The gun can fire two flares, the left, right or both at the same time. Hard to upgrade piece, surely one of the best flare gun I’ve owned so far.

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.

Rare coastal artillery related headset that plugs into the FF33 field phone and desk phone. The headset shares many optical similarities with the Panzer variant but the cable is different; unlike the standard Y-shaped cable setup this example has the cable for the second speaker running over the top of the headset. There are many variants of these headsets but this example is for sure one of the rarest to find!

M35 single decal helmet marked NS62 indicating production by Vereinigte Deutsche Nikelwerke, Schwerte. The helmet retains its original toned Heer decal and has a battle damage to the front of the crown. The helmet is untouched, as found in a Danish farm near bunkers where it was picked up after the liberation. Nice untouched example!

Stone mint straight Entrenching tool carrier manufactured in tan Presstoff or Ersatzmaterial in stone mint condition. Perfect piece from my personal collection that would be impossible to upgrade!

Nice aluminium Waffen-SS EM/NCO buckle in good, combat used condition. The belt buckle is clearly marked RZM 155/39 ᛋᛋ which indicates production by Assmann & Söhne, Lüdenscheid in 1939. The buckle shows traces of usage and is a clearly combat used example! Excellent early produced aluminium Waffen-SS belt buckle!

Original wooden sign to the prisoner of war camp or Kriegsgefangenenarbeitskommando at Gut Hohenlieth which was a large farm in Gutshof near Kiel where mostly Polish and French prisoners of war were housed and put to work. This historical sign would be a great asset for any museum display or further historical research.

Textbook unissued Feldherrnhalle cufftitle with RZM label. The cufftitle is in unissued condition and would be very hard to upgrade!

Stunning original SS-VT or SS-Verfügungstruppen shoulderstraps for a Sturmscharführer in  1 Totenkopfsturmbann “Oberbayern” in good worn condition. The straps come in the rare rank of  SS-Sturmscharführer, the equivalent of a Spiessin the Heer. A very rare set of shoulderstraps that would be very hard to upgrade!

A nice late war Tool pouch for the MG34 and MG42 machinegun. It is made out of the late war Presstoff material and is in good condition with all internal fittings and leather straps. The leather is nice and supple and the Presstoff is nice in colour. The pouch is marked inside the closing flap gut 4. Interestingly the leather parts are stitched and riveted! A rare late war pouch in good, unused condition!

Textbook original Heer M40 trousers in good worn condition with period repairs. The trousers have nice grey glass buttons which are some of my favorite buttons. A nice pair of trousers for a sharp price that would surely look great on a combat mannequin!
