German camo helmet

Perfect pre war M31 messkit marked W.A.L. 40 indicating production by Westfalische Aluminium Industrie, Junger & Co., Lüdenscheid in 1940. The messkit retains its original factory paint up to 98% and would be near impossible to upgrade. Very hard to find such a early messkit!

A stunning original MG34 ammunition box with unit markings and a yellow and red stripe indicating a specific type of ammunition such as tracer and armour penetrating.

Rare late war M31 Splittertarn Zeltbahn with rotating button holes. This Zeltbahn was produced in a small experimental batch between May and July 1944. The Zeltbahn is in used condition with none of its buttons and one or two small damages. One of the rarest Zeltbahns to find!

A nice bakelite 6×30 Dienstglas container in very good condition. Complete with the original leather straps on the back.

Nice Luftwaffe wrist compass or Armkompass 39 (AK39). The compass is in good and working condition with its often missing original strap. The base material of the compass is in good, clear condition.

A very nice M31 canteen marked HRE 39 indicating production by Heinrich Ritter, Esslingen. 

Nice mint example of a Heer breadbag complete with strap.

A nice complete set! These sets are hard to find complete and usually sold in parts sadly. Nicely matching set dated 1935. A issued piece for the mapcase!

A Iconic edition of LIFE magazine. The tough, haggard man on the cover is one of the thousands who are winning the battle for France. He is Lt. Kelso C. Horne of the U.S. airborne infantry. Men like Lt. Horne saw their hardest fighting on June 6, when many of them were landed behind German lines in Normandy with parachute troops. In the great breakthrough in France, airborne troops are probably being used as infantry shock troops. The picture on the front is one of the most iconic images of the war. The magazine is in good and complete condition. A true ICON for any Airborne collection!

Nice complete US bandage

Very nice early US paratrooper wrist compass by Taylor.
These compasses where also known to been worn over the sleeve, the shoulder loops, webbing, or at the ankle over the jump boots.
Wrist compasses were used both by officers and enlisted men. A very nice example that would be hard to upgrade.

Nice original M36

Nice original 1943 dated map of the area of ‘S Hertogenbosch in the Netherlands which spans the general area of operations of the US airborne troops during Market garden. The area spans between Eindhoven and Nijmegen and covers most if not all of the drop zones, bridges and objectives. Hard to find map in good condition that belongs in any Airborne mapcase!

Two original pictures of SS-Untersturmführer Benno Migsch was a part of 5. Kompanie SS Kradschützen battallion which was a part of the Totenkopf division. SS-Untersturmführer Benno Migsch fell during the heavy Russian counter attack in Lushno. Scarce pictures of a grave that is unknown to the Bundesarchiv!

Two small SS-TK postcards 6.5×8.5 cm

A very nice single decal Fallschirmjäger or paratrooper helmet. The helmet is in very good condition and complete with its original liner, chinstrap and bolts. The helmet still retains up to 90% of its wartime paint and decal. Nicely marked ET66 indicating production by Eisen- u. Huettenwerke, Thale, Harz. The helmet is a size 66 shell with a size 54 liner. The liner is supple and in good condition. The straps are also supple with functional snaps and buckle. The helmet would be a great addition to any helmet collection!

Nice near mint late war Zeltbahn with nice strong colours. Most if not all of its originally sewn buttons and nicely marked R.B.Nr. 0/0156/0018. 

Very nice and scarce to find late war Ultrasin pilots goggles complete with their original case. These late war plastic based Splitterschutzbrille or splinter protective goggles where meant to be worn with the leather flight helmet. Incredibly scarce to find in good used condition and complete with their case!

Stunning original M40 Luftwaffe helmet in three-tone Normandy camouflage with a sweetheart picture found in the liner. The helmet retains up to 80% of its original camouflage paint and its original liner and chinstrap. The helmet is marked Q66 indicating production by Quist. The liner is nice size 58 and original to the helmet. I looked inside the helmet and felt a piece of paper behind the leather of the liner. The picture of a Nachrichtenhelferin named Irene was tucked inside; most probably his sweetheart as a good luck charm. The helmet is named to Obergefreiter Brandt in the skirt of the helmet and the liner. The chinstrap is a nice early brown LBA marked example with aluminum buckle. The helmet is a very nice example of a three-tone camouflage helmet with a very nice extra that I found inside!
