German militaria

Beautiful non-reversible Sumpftarn camouflage hood or Kopfhaube. The hood is complete with both of its original tying straps and is in excellent, near mint condition. The hood is nicely marked with a large font RBNr. but this is sadly not clearly readable. Note the nice zigzag stitch around the wool parts at the ears. Perfect example which would fit nicely in any winter display!

Matching Waffen-SS parka mittens in oak leaf B camouflage

US M1 Garand bayonet marked UC 1943. Typical Cut-down example in good used condition.

Simply the best chickenwire helmet I’ve had to offer! A truly spectacular example of a Heer single decal M40 helmet marked ET64 with a wartime added half basket chickenwire cover overpainted in three-tone Normandy camouflage. The chickenwire is the typical wartime used type as used to camouflage bunkers and positions. The chickenwire was period applied and has never been removed from the helmet. The chickenwire was over sprayed and retains tan, green and red paint vividly. Underneath the chickenwire retains 75 years of dust and patina; the helmet is a untouched and uncleaned example. The camouflage paint is vibrant and in good condition with loads of patina all over. Closeups of the paint show lots of cracks and patina. The helmet retains its factory fitted liner and period attached chinstrap which have always been with the helmet. The helmet is named Gefr. Striewe in the skirt of the helmet. This is simply the best helmet I’ve found in the last 10 years and would be a prime piece in any helmet collection – surely a one looker original and véry hard to upgrade.

Rare untouched Waffen-SS Bergmütze in excellent condition. A textbook Waffen-SS mountain cap with factory hand sewn BeVo eagle and skull, neatly embedded in the wool. The cap is a textbook constructed Bergmütze or mountain cap. The cap is lined in grey ribbed cotton and finished with a leather sweatband. The liner is nicely size marked 56. The wool of the cap is typical early to mid war quality, with a very light colour difference between the top and side of the hat. The hat is in very good, lightly worn condition. It was found in 1978 in France and was part of a small collection from a local history teacher. The cap is a textbook and exceptionally rare example that would be impossible to upgrade.

Another example that I believe from the same manufacturer can be seen here; https://virtualgrenadier.com/sale_item.php?iid=5747

Excellent, large sized Heer Sonderführer visor cap marked Offizier Kleiderkasse Berlin Erel Sonderklasse Extra. The visor is in perfect condition and a nice size 60 which is exceptionally large. The visor is a textbook example in the best possible condition.

Excellent Heer Heeresverwaltung visor cap marked Offizier Kleiderkasse Berlin Erel Sonderklasse Extra. The visor is in perfect condition and a nice size 57 which is medium. The visor is a textbook example in the best possible condition.

A excellent M42 Kochgeschirr marked ESB 43 indicating production by Eduard Sommerfeld, Berlin. The messkit has the red oxide primer paint and is externally finished with the typical olive paint. The messkit retains up to 90% of its original finish. The messkit features initials ST. G. Excellent example in very good condition!

Rare original pre war military themed Harmonika marked Wenn Wir Marschieren. This pre war example was marketed for sale amongst Heer soldiers.

Textbook BeVo Heer EM/NCO M43 cap trapezoid in unissued condition.

Textbook Luftwaffe Flak headset L38042 in good used condition. Rare complete headset; headphone with throat microhphone to wear together with the helmet. The headset is complete and plugs right into the FF33 or 8,8cm Flak gun intercom. Very rare to find and both Luftwaffe marked and in very good condition.

Heer silk top crusher, a relic item which should be restored. The cap comes with a leather visor and would be a nice base for restoration.

Textbook mid to late war breadbag strap. The strap is in light used condition.

Late war K98 ammunition pouch in good condition. The pouch is complete with all internal dividers. The pouch is nicely marked RBNr. 0/0671/0163. Very nice riveted example in good condition!

Textbook M37 lowboots as worn by the Heer, Luftwaffe and Waffen-SS. These lowboots are a typical and matching pair in light worn condition. The boots are a nice medium size fitting most modern mannequins and come with their original metal tipped laces. The rear seams of the boots have some stitching undone; otherwise a great and undamaged pair! For me this is the perfect pair for a mannequin, used not abused!

MG34 u. MG42 muzzle cap. These natural rubber caps are stiff but can easily be maneuvered onto the MG34 u. MG42 muzzle. The price is for one.

Nice original pre war training rounds or Exerzierpatronen for use with the K98. Nicely maker marked and dated 1939. These hold no powder and are in no way shape or form able to be transformed to actual ammunition. They are made from a single piece of material and are not munitions.

Due to the nature of the item I can not ship this item outside of Europe unless the buyer takes the risk.
