German militaria

Very rare M42 (Steel) 1L Labeflasche which has only been produced in small numbers and all by the same manufacturer, all the other manufacturers kept producing the Labeflasche out of aluminium. The canteen is marked MN 43/44 which indicates production by Menesa Metallindustrie GmbH. Neunkirchen-Saar. The flask itself is marked 44 and the cups 43, this seems to be normal for the 1944 1L steel produced canteens, all untouched pieces I have come across had this “mis-match”. The canteen is used and has some traces of usage but luckily no major damaging. Great and very rare steel 1L canteen in good used condition. Only the second I have ever been able to offer!

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.

Textbook issue wristwatch in good used condition. The watch is marked Recta andis serialized 561768. The wristwatch is a typical Wehrmacht issue, not private purchase piece. The watch is missing its crown and therefor can not be tested on function. The watch however still carries its original supple period strap which are mostly replaced, removed or simply damaged. A real Dienstuhr can be the finishing touch on a mannequin!

Excellent 3rd pattern Luftwaffe navigation disc or Dreieckrechner DR3 Tp. This example is nicely marked FL. 23 825, gwr, Jan. 1944. The 3 letter code gwr indicates production by an unknown manufacturer in January 1944. This is the rare 3rd pattern which is made out of yellow tinted illuminating synthetic resin material for clear view at night flying and/or low visibility, same idea as with the Luftwaffe issued flight maps. These navigation computers were used by Luftwaffe pilots in almost every German aircraft such as the Me109, Fw190, Me262, He-111, Do-217, Ju-88 and almost all others! Excellent and very rare Dreieckrechner DR3 Tp in very good condition which would be hard to upgrade!

 

 

Leibstandarte Adolf Hitler photo album with 77 photographs. A nice set of interesting photographs with artillery guns, halftracks, camouflage uniforms and communications equipment. There are a number of cuff titles photographed. Halfway into the album the photos go from wartime to POW captivity. There is a additional diary from his POW experiences. Interesting and nice photo album to a interesting and famous unit!

Early war steel produced Deckungswinkelmesser or Indirect fire calculator in good used condition. The Deckungswinkelmesser is nicely marked dhq which is a later simplified code which indicates production by J.D. Möller G.m.b.H., Wedel. This small device was designed to calculate distances and hight differences in terrain. This example has probably been made around 1940, when they changed from brass to steel for the main construction but the “instruction board” still had been produced out of brass! This tool was one of the few real army (Wehrmacht) issued pieces, and is hard to find in good working condition!

Pre war belt buckle set dated 1936 with a tabbed Heer belt buckle marked Gustav Brehmer 1937. The belt is a size 92 and is in good used condition.

Excellent and (over)complete chocolate brown Luftwaffe issued mapcase in very good condition. The mapcase is complete with its original and factory matching clear insert, a map (Rundbild Nr. 175) and 7 different coloured A.W. Faber pencils. The mapcase as well as the clear insert are nicely marked Joseph Moll, Goch 1937 which indicates early production in 1937! The mapcase itself is marked L.B.A.(B) 37 which indicates the mapcase was accepted for usage by the Luftwaffe. Choice Luftwaffe issue mapcase in very good condition with a lot of period contents!

Nice original second world war produced and issued LP42 pattern flare gun.  Sadly this example has been re-issued and refinished post war. The grips are still the original German issue grips. Nice flare gun for display or for filling a holster!

Note!
These flare guns are legal and free to own without permit in the Netherlands for everyone over 18 years of age. Please conduct your local laws before purchasing this product. I can only ship this item within the Netherlands.

Textbook Heer tropical issue breeches in worn condition. The breeches are a good size that should fit most if not not all modern mannequins!

Stunning, unblackened equipment belt marked Gustav Sudbrack Bielefeld 1941 in mint condition. Impossible to upgrade.

Excellent first world war Ersatz bayonet with steel hilt in good condition!

Early M31 Zeltbahn in near mint condition. The Zeltbahn retains its early aluminum grommets and looks to be dated 1940. Excellent piece!

Textbook US Army Ski Parka jacket in near stone mint condition!

Very nice (over)complete M38 gasmask with tall canister set. The canister comes with both its original shoe and long carrying straps and retains the cleaning cloth snd the spring. The lid has a paper label which names this canister to Gefr. (Gefreiter) Koskowski. Very nice black rubber mask with tinted glasses and green painted hardware. Nice and complete set in good untouched condition!

A very nice pre war M31 messkit marked RZM M6/1/39. The messkit still retains up to 90% of its original field grey paint. These RZM quality messkits where issue to all sorts of political organizations. This short M31 model is a typical military messkit. This M31 messkit was most probably made and used by the Waffen-SS. The usual prewar political models for the Hitlerjugend, Allgemeine-SS and SA where finished in a black paint and are of the large M1910 model. This one, being a short military model produced in Feldgrau was most probably produced and used by the Waffen-SS.

Very nice uniform removed original Waffen-SS Dachau pattern sleeve eagle. The sleeve eagle is in very good, worn and uniform removed condition. The sleeve eagle is found with the hoard finds from Dachau. The eagle would be a very nice addition to any SS EM/NCO uniform!
