German camo helmet

Rare pre war Dutch model 34 Pionierschop for Infanterie troops. Much rarer then its German counterpart, complete with its original paint finish.

A stunning Waffen-SS plane tree 1/2 Camouflage Zeltbahn in lightly worn condition. The Zeltbahn retains most if not all of its originally sewn buttons and has a few period repairs. The Zeltbahn is made up out of a nice and unique variety of camouflage patterns; early handscreened plane tree 1/2, late plane tree 1/2 overprint and Handscreened 5/6 on the sides. The colors are strong and vibrant, hard to find a better one! The Zeltbahn is all in great condition and surely one of the best ones I’ve had to offer!

Textbook Luftwaffe straight legged trousers in great, unissued condition. The trousers are nicely marked LBA 39 and made by Brandenburger Kleiderfabrik G.m.b.H., Brandenburg an der Havel. The trousers are a good mannequin size and are in very good, imo unissued condition. The trousers have one or two minuscule moth holes. Other then that perfect!

A nice early pattern reversible parka trousers or Wendehose executed in thick gaberdine/wool. The garment is in good used condition with some damages and staining. The garment features most of its originally sewn buttons. The garment is slightly shortened at the bottom but by no means to small for a modern mannequin! A nice set of combat worn parka trousers.

A very nice late war Waffen-SS belt buckle marked RZM 155/43 ᛋᛋ  indicating production by Assmann & Söhne, Lüdenscheid. A nice combat worn example of a original Waffen-SS belt buckle in its original finish!

In good used condition, hard to find spare!  Nicely maker marked and dated.

Stunning NS64 M42 three-tone Normandy camouflage helmet. The helmet is in good used condition and nicely marked NS64 with lot number D03 indicating production by Nickelwerke Schwerte. The helmet retains up to 90% of its original three-tone Normandy camouflage paint. The colours are nice, strong and vibrant. On the top of the helmet a hand palm print can be seen in the paint. The helmet retains remnants of a camouflage net complete with the drawstring with steel ring inside the helmet. The leather liner is original to the helmet and shows indicatory traces of blood staining making this a possible KIA helmet. The helmet is a stunning and textbook example of a three-tone Normandy camouflage helmet in great condition!

Nice matching pair of chocolate brown LBA(S) 38 marked K98 ammunition pouches. One of the pouches is marked LBA(S)38 and matching maker and date markings. One of the pouches lacks the internal dividers.

A nice and honest NS64 M42 camouflage helmet. The helmet retains up to 65% of its white winter whitewash which has severely darkened due to combat use. The helmet is marked NS64 indicating production by Nickelwerke Schwerte. The helmet retains its ‘thin wing’ Heer decal by Huber Jordan & Koerner.  A perfect camouflage helmet for a Battle of the Bulge themed mannequin!

Late war Heer/Waffen-SS rucksack made from captured British webbing parts. The rucksack was made in the infamous ghetto of Litzmannstadt. Nicely named inside Wirtschaftsamt Litzmannstadt. The rucksack is a nice compilation of small details; from the blue edge to the British rope and Lee Enfield sling used on top. A nice late war rucksack, for sure the best I’ve had so far.

A stunning woodwork ET64 M35 Kriegsmarine camouflage helmet found in the Batterie Vineta, Hoek van Holland. The helmet was picked up by a boy right after the war and has only been in one collection ever since. The helmet is in great condition with over 90% of the tan camouflage paint remaining. The original ET Kriegsmarine decal is still 100%, partially obscured by green camouflage paint. The decal has the thin black border around the eagle and the swastika has a strong, deep golden tint as would be expected of a Kriegsmarine decal. The tricolor decal has been removed, as per regulation in 1940. The back skirt is nicely named to Hernez on top of the lot number 4936. The helmet is a great example of a Coastal Artillery camouflage helmet and it would be very hard to upgrade. Especially with the provenance of the helmet being picked up from a certain (and famous) Coastal Artillery Battery Vineta in Hoek van Holland, the Netherlands. This helmet would be a prime piece in any coastal artillery collector!

A stunning 1939 dated A-frame in unissued condition. The A-frame is complete with its pre war pouch and messkit strap. The leather straps are made of supple brown leather. A-frame is nicely dated 1939 as is the pouch. The first batch of A-frames like this one was only made in a small trial batch and issued to some of the troops for the 1940 campaign. The A-frame is in perfect condition and would be very hard to upgrade!

A stunning single decal NS68 single decal M42 Heer helmet. Still retains up to 95% of the original Huber Jordan u. Koerner decal which is the textbook factory decal for NS helmets. The helmet retains 99% of the original textured factory applied paint. The helmet has a big 60 size liner which is original to the helmet. The helmet is a great example of a minty exceptionally large helmet. Inside the dome the dome stamp is still clearly visible and the skirt of the helmet is nicely named to Vinken.
Over the general production only 5% where made in size 68 which makes it a rare size to find, especially in this minty condition. If you’re looking for a rare and large sized M42 Heer helmet this is it!

A very nice, lightly used MG34 tool pouch in leather with its original MG34 spider sight. The pouch is nicely marked fuq 1944 indicating production by Curt Vogel, Cottbuss. The pouch has one small faulty stitching, other then that its in great condition!

Hard to find spare 6×30 Dienstglas case strap in very good and supple condition.

Stunning brush painted tropical camouflage gas mask canister. The canister is dated 1942 and is named to Rudolf Körner. The gas mask is complete with all of its original contents. The original tan camouflage paint still retains to 90% of the canister and this would easily be the best one I’ve found in a long time! The canister would very nicely attribute to a Afrikakorps or Italian theater mannequin! A stunning original tan camouflage gas mask that would be very hard to upgrade!

These straps where issued to MG crews and assisted in carrying the MG34 and MG42 ammunition boxes. The material is strong and in good used condition. These straps are hard to come by and would display nicely with a pair of ammunition boxes.

A nice late war matching pair of Gamaschen to be worn on top of the M37 Schnürschuhe. Nice mint pair with brown leather – hard to upgrade!

A nice original Waffen-SS belt buckle marked Rodo indicating production by Robert Dold, Offenberg. This was the final colour of Waffen-SS belt buckle by Rodo. Usually Rodo buckles are finished in green paint. Looking at the head of the eagle one can observe no pebbling besides it and the rope clear indicating this is still a type 1 rodo buckle as named by Jean Pierre Redeuilh. Blue painted Waffen-SS buckles are amongst some of the rarest SS buckles out there!
