German militaria

If you just need one pair of boots, this is it: A textbook pair of Schnürschuhe in unissued condition. The leather is strong and very supple on these boots and they are complete with their original laces. Nicely marked and size 28. The size is large, perfect for mannequins. Hard to upgrade textbook pair of lowboots!

Superb original M43 field blouse for a Heer infantry EM. The tunic is mint, and retains all of its originally factory sewn insignia. The base material is a coarse Italian wool and lined with grey rayon. The size is a nice medium fitting most modern mannequins. The breast eagle is factory sewn, not through the lining. The Litzen are also factory sewn, no traces of previously sewn examples. The tunic has not been shortened or tailored in any way. The tunic has multiple size markings; the usual sizes but also a additional stamp indicating the wearers height. The original factory red chalk markings for the buttons and holes are still visible. More then likely this tunic was never ever worn! This is a superb and mint M43 field blouse, a typical garment as issued and worn by members of the Heer in the Wehrmacht. Every detail is textbook and finding a better example would be impossible!

Exceptionally rare and supple first pattern 1940 dated Heer Y-straps with aluminum fittings. Nicely maker marked and dated E.G. Leuner Bautzen 1940. Incredible super rare Y-strap in very good condition with aluminum fittings!

In very good condition and very nicely marked Schambach & CO Berlin 1942. These holsters where intended for a range of 7,65mm pistols such as the PPK and HSC. A nice mint holster!

A mint Heer belt buckle by Hermann Aurich in 1941. If you want just one tropical buckle, this is it. Can’t be upgraded!

When firing the MG34 and MG42 continuously the German soldiers where presented with a harsh and difficult task: changing the barrel. The MG34 and MG42 where both made with a quick-change barrel and to help in the changing of the barrel these gloves where invented and issued. These gloves where issued with the accessories of the MG34 and MG42. It is simply used by placing the hand under the strap and using the pad to cover your hand when you grab the hot, sometimes even glowing barrel. The barrel is then placed in the Laufschützer or barrel carrier to cool down and a cool new barrel is inserted. According to regulations, the barrel had to be changed after 150 rounds fired continuously. Every MG team had one or two spare barrels in spare barrel carriers with their field equipment. The MG34 barrel carrier is in very good condition with 90% of the original tan colour remaining. The carrier was once overpainted in blue grey over the original tan factory paint. The carrier is nicely marked beq 1943 indicating production by Framo-Werke G.m.b.H., Hainichen/Sachsen. The carrier is complete with its original LUX marked strap and in very good condition. One of the rarest spares to find for the MG34!

Interesting picture and document group to Alfred Bartus who was a driver on the SDKFZ 250. The lot consists of 5 pictures and his driver license stating he is trained to drive halftracks up to 10 tons heavy. Very nice picture set surely to fit to a Panzergrenadier unit!

Hard to find early German helmet chinstrap with aluminum hardware in mint condition.

A stunning ET64 Heer / Waffen-SS Reissue helmet. Over 95% of its original finish and decal in very good condition. The helmet retains its original liner and chinstrap. The helmet is a great and stunning example of a textbook ET M40 Heer / Waffen-SS Reissue helmet.

A very nice picture lot with original pictures of Waffen-SS Officers, NCO’s and Enlisted men in Norway. Very rare to find pictures of Waffen-SS men in Norway.

A very nice early war picture of a Totenkopf NCO and EM standing with a freshly awarded Iron Cross second class. Nice details such as a SS-VT cap, Totenkopf collar tab, M38 VT plane Tree smocks and cover. A very nice picture with loads of interesting details that would go perfectly next to a EK2 in display!

Stunning and rare cuff title for the Freiwilligen Legion Niederlande in very good uniform removed condition. Nice second pattern RZM style construction as first introduced in 1941. The cufftitle still retains its full length and is in good used condition. There are two notable holes; one small one on the top of the letter ‘a’ and another at the near the end of the cuff. This is one of the rarest cufftitles to find in very good worn condition!

Stunning pair of Waffen-SS shoulder boards for a Hauptsturmführer der Panzertruppen u. Panzerjäger. The pair is in matching condition and shows two pairs of pips, most probably a wartime promotion. The pair is in good condition and shows very light oxidation to the metal wire.

Very rare 1939 dated hand screened SS-Verfügungstruppe plane tree 5/5 Zeltbahn. This pre war pattern plane tree is in very good condition and retains most if not all of its originally sewn green and brown anodized buttons. The Zeltbahn is in untouched condition and shows one stain in the middle. This is a typical stain from using when the Zeltbahn was rolled up and worn on the equipment. The Zeltbahn is nicely marked Warei Zeltbahn D.R.P. 1939 and Warei Petent Reichert Walter Reichert Berlin NW 40. Rare pre war SS-Verfügungstruppe Camouflage items are some of the rarest and most searched for items! Would be very hard to upgrade!

Rare late war flare ammunition pouch in good used condition. The case is made from blue webbing and comes with its original removable sling. The pouch is complete with all internal dividers and wooden reinforcement and some empty casings. Nicely marked WaA on the side. Quite hard to find a better Luftwaffe one!

Nice pair of M36 Heer EM shoulderstraps for a soldier in Artillerie Regiment 69 in unissued condition.

Nice complete set of the long and short strap. Typical late war material as used with the ‘ebd’ marked straps.

Hard to find spare in good used condition. Length approximately 50cm. Often missing from many helmets, this is a perfect addition to a helmet with some patina.
