Rare Luftwaffe M43 field blouse with factory sewn breast eagle and Hermann Göring cufftitle. These jackets were issued in the final months of the war and was specifically made for the Hermann Göring division. Not do be confused with a Heer M43 field jacket, this example is a Luftwaffe made, field grey field blouse. The breast eagle is zigzag sewn in a typical fashion for these garments. The cufftitle on the sleeve is typical and also factory sewn; probably the only wartime made garment with a factory sewn cufftitle. These late war, unpiped shoulderstraps were issued with the late issue field grey four pocket Luftwaffe M43 field blouse. These straps have no piping which in my opinion is logical. Being of a field grey in stead of a Luftwaffe blue wool, it would be very hard finding shoulderstraps in matching wool colour. In my opinion these were intended for the unit to apply their own piping like the late war piped Hermann Göring collar tabs. The straps are typical late war examples with simplified construction. Similar examples with the same sewing can be found here and here. Scarce and choice piece, for sure one of the rarest Luftwaffe garments I’ve had to offer!

Rare Bakelite 6×30 Dienstglas marked CXN. These binoculars are in good, used condition without structural damage to the bakelite or the hinges. The CXN marking is present but the Dienstglas markings have been erased. This is common practice after 1945. The binoculars come with their period attached strap but it has a small damage. Otherwise a great pair that would nicely display on any late war combat mannequin!

Textbook example of the Handschar Waffen-SS Collar Tab. These were intended for the 13. Waffen-Gebirgs-Division der SS “Handschar”. This is an unissued, late war piece, in the typical “Dachau” construction as found in the SS storehouse at the Dachau camp when it was liberated by US Army forces in 1945. These are embroidered in silver-gray on a base of typical SS black wool. On the reverse, the textbook Dachau type coarsely woven tan buckram stiffener is visible. There is some glue on the back, as well as the white stitching common to these Dachau tabs. Overall textbook construction with silver-white embroidered “Handschar” symbol on a typical black wool backing, and on the reverse the coarsely woven tan buckram stiffener is clearly visible.
