German helmet

Beautiful folding E-tool complete with the second pattern pressstoff carrier. The E-tool itself is nicely marked gcq 41 which indicates production by Heinrich Jung & Sohn, Gesenkschmiede, Halver. The second pattern pressstoff carrier is nicely marked not the back of the belt loop 1943 and with an unreadable RBNr. Unlike many if not all folding E-tools that are on the market today this one does not bear any signs of being repainted/cleaned or repaired. Superb set in very good close to mint condition that would be hard if not impossible to upgrade!

Rare original unissued pack of medic tags marked Emergency Medical tag US ARMY. These were carried and used by all medics, but are hard to find nowadays.

Excellent rubber pattern Stirnlampe or headlight in its original pouch in very good, used condition. The rubber pattern is the most frequently encountered pattern but this example is executed in green(!) coloured rubber which seems to be quite rare! The head band which is still flexible and the cable are both in good and most likely working condition. The normally bakelite battery case is missing and has most likely been periodically changed for a smaller battery case which is still on it now! The rubber part on the Stirnlampe or headlamp is nicely marked ROKA 1939 which indicates production by Robert Karst, Berlin in 1939. The headlamp or Stirnlampe comes in its original storage pouch which is virtually always missing and not available as a spare! The pouch itself is in great condition and nicely marked PW 40 and WaA 584 which indicates most likely a subcontractor who produced these storage pouches for ROKA. These headlight are hard to find, let alone executed in green rubber with the original storage pouch!

US M1 swivel bale helmet in good used condition. The leather strap was most probably added to the piece, but I found it like that. Typical late war helmet as worn in the ETO.

Excellent hidden stitch Y-strap in very good, close to mint and most likely unissued condition. The Y-strap is nicely marked with a 3 digit code which indicates production by an unknown manufacturer. Excellent example to complete any Wehrmacht or Waffen-SS combat mannequin!

Refinished(!) late war Waffen-SS belt buckle made by Overhoff & Cie, Lüdenscheid. These buckles where made later in the war and came unmarked. A textbook buckle that has been repainted, but displays very well.

Textbook tan MG42 barrel carrier marked WA42. Although its missing the strap the carrier still retains up to 95% of its factory paint. Rare original barrel carrier.

Textbook hardshell P38 holster marked hft43 which is a uncommon manufacturer abbreviation. The holster is in very good condition and would be hard to upgrade.

Textbook M38 communications gasmask in good, lightly used condition. Rare communications variant as used by Küstenartillerie personnel.

A very M35 beaded Luftschutz helmet with its original chinstrap and size 57 liner.

SS-FM Förderndes Mitglied Members pin by Deschler & Sohne. The pin is one of the A-series which is a very early example with a low number under 10.000.
Rare, early example in good condition.

Textbook Heer Pith Helmet in size 57. The helmet is in very good, used condition and dated 1942.

Very rare and desirable German manufactured holster for the P39 (t) in excellent condition. Although this holster looks almost identical to any P38 holster from the external perspective the P38 won’t fit this holster, it is specifically designed and manufactured for the P39(t) or ČZ vz. 38. The holster is nicely marked C. Budischowsky, Wien 1940 on the back and with an ink stamp P39 (t) on the inside to indicate the firearm it was supposed to carry. Extremely rare example which is a first for me!

Matching Heer Unteroffizier shoulderstraps with purple piping indicating use for a unit attached to a chaplains unit or a unusual colour for Nebelwerfer. The rare set of shoulderstraps are in excellent condition and would be very hard to upgrade!

M34 Polizei helmet marked Q in good condition retaining both of its original decals.

Textbook P08 Holster marked jln 1941 indicating production by Deutsche Lederwerkstaetten GmbH, Pirmasens. The holster is in great condition and would be hard to upgrade!
