German camo helmet

A perfect pair of issue riding boots or Reitstiefel. The pair is in mint unissued condition and retains all of its wartime applied hobnails and heels. This mint pair would be perfect for a cavalry or combat officer display!

A perfect mint set for a mid to late war Heer or Waffen-SS tunic in blue paint. Hard to find spare set!

A perfect mint late war belt with a late blue buckle marked N. & H. L. indicating production by Noelle & Hueck, Ludenscheid. The belt is nicely RBNR marked and size 90. The belt and buckle are both in amazing mint condition and would be impossible to upgrade.

A very hard to find detail to finish a NCO or CO display. This original German army issue signal whistle made from bakelite with its original field gray knotted lanyard is in mint condition. Many commands where given with whistles during combat and the use and recognition of the different signals was something most soldiers would have known.

A very nice late war Enamelled M42 messkit in good, lightly used condition. The messkit still retains most of its original enameling and is a typical late war messkit in very good condition!

A very nice Heer M40 mantel dated 1940. Inside the lining pocket a name stamp can be seen to Helmut Dänn from Stettin. The overcoat is complete with all its originally sewn buttons and Gefreiter rank on the sleeve. The mantel is in very good only lightly worn condition with most if not all of the original nap in the wool. The size is a nice medium.

A double decal Heer M35 helmet in mint condition. Nicely marked ET64 indicating production by Eisenhüttenwerke, Thale. The non reinforced liner band is dated 1935 and comes with the 1931 dated Schuberth leather. The helmet still retains 99% of its original Gus Abel decals and paint.The helmet is truly one of the best apple green M35 helmets that I’ve seen out there and would be a crown in any helmet collection. Simply a textbook M35 in the best possible condition!

A nice original set of both a microphone and headphone. A important attribute to any German radio!

A nice big ET66 M35 double decal helmet in very good used condition. The helmet is marked ET66 indicating prodution by Eisenhüttenwerke, Thale. The helmet is one of the earliest Luftwaffe M35 helmets having a non reinforced first pattern Schuberth 1931 dated leather liner. Both of the early decals are present including the early “droop tail” Luftwaffe decal. One of the rivets is a wartime replacement. Inside the neck of the helmet a small piece of tape is applied with a handwritten text;

Property of LT. Col. L.A. Zimmer

Lieutenant Colonel Layton Allen Zimmer served in the Navy in world war one, and later in world war two served in North Africa and Europe. As a first lieutenant he was stationed in Hawaii on a coastal artillery battery between the wars and most probably during the Pearl Harbor raid.

The helmet is one of the first production run M35’s for the Luftwaffe and has the rare first model liner. The paint on the helmet still retains up to 85% and especially for the date is still in very good condition!

Textbook late war Luftwaffe M43 field cap with factory sewn two piece insignia. Nicely marked 0/0378/0118 inside, dated 1944 and size 57. The cap is in great, lightly worn condition retaining 99% of the original nap.

A very nice mint condition green MP40 pouch. This is truly one of the nicest green CLG pouches I have ever encountered and would make a nice addition to the collector of equipment. The pouch is marked CLG 43 indicating production by Ernst Melzig Lederwaren, Liegnitz. The leather is supple and in perfect condition. If you are looking for a MINT mp40 pouch, this is it!

A very nice late war double decal M40 Polizei helmet. The helmet is nicely marked Q64 indicating production by Quist with the lot number T3339. The helmet retains its original liner and chinstrap that are original to the helmet. On the chinstrap loop a small brass tag is attached that was found on the helmet. The original decals still retain up to 99%. A very nice and near mint Polizei helmet that would be a very nice addition to any helmet collection!

Late war Dachau made Waffen-SS M43 cap. Textbook late war cardboard brim construction cap in size 56. The embroided Dachau trapezoid insignia is factory zig-zag sewn to the cap. The cap is in mint, unissued condition and would be very hard to upgrade!

A very scarce original low turret tan sniper scope case marked jvb. Still retaining up to 40% of its original factory tan paint. In a sea of fakes, here is a real one in obvious, combat used condition!

A great set of three original equipment straps in unissued condition. Nicely dated 1941 and all matching!

One of the rarest bits of German army equipment. A stunning pair of 6×30 Dienstglasbinoculars marked CXN indicating production by Emil Busch. The binoculars have clear lenses without scratches. The binoculars still retain all of their zinc and bakelite without any serious defects. The oculars can easily be removed from the mount. The binoculars are nicely adjustable. They lack the Strichplatte and the sight is very slightly double and clear, nice to use! They are fitted with a adjustable strap that is affixable to two sets of bales on the reverse of the main body. I have added two pictures of these type of binoculars in use. Bakelite binoculars can be seen on the left hand side of the picture worn by the Unterscharführer in Kampfgruppe Knittel at the Kaiserbaracke crossroads. The straps are original and exactly the type that should be on this binocular. Can not be upgraded!

A very rare pair of binoculars in very good condition!

Rare late war green Tarnpaste or camouflage paint. One of three colours in the iconic three tone Normandy camouflage. This original paint container still contains most of its original content. The content is a paste/powdered paint that was to be thinned with water or gasoline to apply to camouflage vehicles or equipment. The container is nicely marked RBNr. 0/1005/0013. A very nice centerpiece in any camouflage collection, imo!
