A great set of original buttons for a Heer or Waffen-SS M43 field cap or Einheitsfeldmütze. Rare buttons to find and all in good usable condition!

Beautiful second pattern black speckled butterdish or Fettbüchse marked XO/S. The butterdish looks black but close inspection reveals its fully speckled with dark brown spots which are clearly the wood fibers which are used as the filler material. Aesthetic variant!

Typical wartime “Knijpkat” torch. These flashlights where made utilizing forced labour from Konzentrationslager Herzogenbusch. Unlike most of the wartime used flashlights the knijhpkat doesn’t have a battery but uses a small internal dynamo. The mechanism is still in great condition and the torch still works!

A beautiful pair of late war Heer NCO shoulder boards for a feldwebel in a kradschütze unit with late war subdued (!) tresse and copper brown rayon piping. These shoulder boards where worn by Kradschützen, troops mounted on motorcycles with sidecars. These troops where one of the first fast response units which saw lots of action early in the war. The straps are identical and a perfectly matching pair in very good condition. These shoulderstraps have the copper brown rayon piping typical for the Kradschützen units. Extremely hard to find pair of shoulderstraps!

Excellent single Luftwaffe FLAK collar tab intended for a Leutnent der Reserve eines Artillerie-Regiment. The collar tab is double piped, the blue piping indicates a reserve unit. Beautiful constructed collar tab which is really hard to find even as a single example!

Radio-operator or Funker proficiency arm patch or Tätigkeitsabzeichen intended for Panzergrenadier troops. The arm patch is in mint unissued condition. Nice example with the SG logo stamped on the back.  Aesthetic variant with the light green Panzergrenadier Waffenfarbe! 

Mint condition black coloured leather Jerkin from Canadian manufacturing. These Canadian produced Jerkins are made in a multi panel construction and the quality standards are way higher comparing with the British produced Jerkins. This example has a clearly readable label which indicates production by The D.A. Miller Co., Ltd., Montreal in 1943. These Jerkins were worn by almost all troops including dispatch riders and armored troops. This example is a nice medium size and would most likely fit any mannequin!

US ammunition bag M2 in very good minty condition.

Uncommon and large US EGW (E.G. Waterman) fighting knife with original leather scabbard.

US military issue song book Selected Jewish Songs for members of the Armed Forces dated 1943.

Rare intact original US issue sunglasses by American Polaroid in its original case dated 1945.

Rare and unique British Bergen rucksack as issued to Royal Marine Commando’s, Glider Pilots and other special ops units. These large Rucksacks were the tell tale equipment piece for any Commando as they were intended for use by troops that were not followed by transport vehicles and whose mission demanded that they take equipment which could not be carried in the large pack or haversack. This Bergen rucksack is exactly the type as used on D-Day, but this one has the proof it was actually there; the tell-tale invasion markings on the back of the bergen show it was used by a Royal Marine Commando or a Glider Pilot. The exact unit for these invasion markings is not known but would be a great base for further study that is worthy of this rucksacks history! The rucksack was originally obtained from a Vide-Greniers or flea market east of Caen, around 1995. This is a unique D-Day item that would be the prime piece in any Commonwealth D-Day display!

Textbook EM Artillery visor in mint condition. This one is a excellent example that would be very hard to upgrade. The wool retains most if not all of its nap with only one damage to the back on the piping. The liner is nicely marked Ernst Voigt Altenburg Stirndruckfrei Deutsches Reichspatent. The visor is partially loose but firmly attached to the cap itself. A minty cap that would be very hard to upgrade!

Original, untouched German M18 helmet straight from the Woodwork in Saint–Lô, Normandy. This helmet survived not one but two wars and was found with 5 other helmets in a farm in Saint–Lô by myself, 5.6.2021. The helmet is in the exact condition how I found it with its factory installed liner with one filled cushion and US-Style chinstrap that was added at some point. The helmet is in overall good, used condition and is marked ET64 indicating production by Eisenhuttenwerke, Thale. The helmet is a nice untouched example that has never been in a collection before!

Rare original British MKII helmet with Royal Artillery flash or Decal. The helmet is a excellent early example with its factory brown camouflage paint and marked RO&CO 41 in the shell and Vero 7 1/4 1941 in the liner.

Beautiful wartime dated mosquito net or Mückennetz in unissued condition. The mosquito net is nicely marked BEHA G.m.b.H Berlin 1943 which seems to be one of the biggest producers of these mosquito nets. Textbook light green coloured construction and large enough to fit over all helmets! Excellent 1943 dated mosquito net in mint and most likely unissued condition!

Textbook original dark green US M1 helmet net. This is the textbook small hole and rough, thick greenish thread construction. Nicely looking variant with dark green netting and a lighter greenish drawstring. This dark green coloured net is uncommon and very hard to find as a spare!
