German militaria

A very nice mint original pack of Lucky strike cigarettes. Iconical piece loved and smoked by both the American and German soldiers. Hard to find in mint condition with original content and military tax label!

Nice original US M1C Westinghouse paratrooper helmet liner with US M1 helmet shell. Very hard to upgrade original paratrooper liner paired with a front seam swivel bale M1 helmetshell. The liner comes with a late woven chincup.

Stunning original Waffen-SS M42 combat helmet marked EF68 indicating production by Emaillierwerke Fulda. The helmet bears its textbook EF SS decal and paint retaining up to 90%. The helmet is a very big size 68 shell with its originally mounted late war spliced liner and chinstrap. The helmet is a typical late war example of a rare and big sized original Waffen-SS helmet. Very hard to find big sized SS helmets especially in great condition like this one!

Nice original M35 Heer helmet in untouched condition. Nicely marked EF62 indicating production by Emaillierwerke Fulda with its original size 55 liner and chinstrap. The helmet has a thick ’62’ stamped to the dome indicating the shell size. The helmet is a typical mid war refurbishment and a typical helmet worn by soldiers in the Heer post 1942. The helmet is named on the leather.

A nice pair in very good condition marked RB.Nr.0/0560/0101. The pouches are in unissued condition with all dividers intact.

Nice original late war equipment belt with red pronged JFS buckle and a nice large size 100 fitting most if not all mannequins. Hard to upgrade!

Stunning pair of original MP44 or Sturmgewehr pouches in combat used condition. The pouches are matching and connected by its nice bright green woven connecting strap. These mp44 pouches where combat used during Unternehmen Herbstnebel or the Battle of the Bulge. They where left behind in a barn in Luxemburg and found long after the war ended. The pair still retains dirt and stains and imprints from the magazines. The pouches are unwashed and would nicely attribute to a combat mannequin. There aren’t a lot original combat used MP44 pouches around; this is one of the few pairs! Fantastic set that would be impossible to upgrade if you want a piece of history!

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!
