Soldbuch to Heumar Schreiber, serving in Flakbatterie zbv Marienfelde at Berlin in 1945. Schreiber first served in 223 Infanterie Division and he was awarded the Eisernes Kreuz II Klasse, Infanterie Sturmabzeichen, Verwundetenabzeichen in Schwarz and the Ostmedaille. Interesting Soldbuch that would be a nice base for further research!

Original 1943 dated “blaugrau” buttons for Heer, Luftwaffe and SS. In 1943 a new “einheitsfarbe” meaning colour for all branches was introduced and used on all garments. This was never fully implemented but a large portion of the M43 and most if not all M44 tunics received these. From that date onwards “Graublau” was the new textbook colour for pebbled buttons on uniforms. These can be seen on original m42, m43 and m44 tunics, mantels and caps. Also the M43 tropical uniforms and Fliegerblusen featured these!

A set of two matching equipment straps marked A Jeurgens Goch 1941.

Textbook tabbed aluminum Heer belt buckle maker marked SRM Metallwarenfabrik Schmiedeberg/ Rsgb 1936 – surely one of the rarest buckle manufacturers out there!

Rare and matching Heer Gaberdine M43 uniform in unissued condition. The field blouse and the trousers are in a large size with 100cm chest size. The trousers and blouse are in the same colour wich is rare to find and a great base for a mannequin. The field blouse bears insignia for a Heer enlisted men. The garments retains all of their factory sewn buttons. The field blouse comes with full machine sewn insignia; a  breast eagle which has been zigzag sewn and a pair of straight sewn Einheitskragenspiegel with no signs of previously attached insignia. Although the breast eagle is attached in a textbook way, I believe it might be a new addition to the garment. This does not deter from the fact that this is a fully matching, large sized and not commonly encountered uniform set in unissued condition that would be a great set in any collection!

Rare original mittens for the Waffen-SS Charkov parka. These mittens where issued with the Charkov parka and are made from the same thick grey material. Nicely marked with the size 2. The mittens are rare to find and made specifically for the Charkov parka.
