German militaria

A nice original MP38 u. MP40 pouch in combat used condition. The pouch is nicely marked gmn 41 indicating production by Phillipp Riebel & Söhne, Sattlerwaren- u.Sportartikelfabrik. This is one of the earliest of factory produced MP38 u. 40 pouches in good slightly used condition.

A typical and surely textbook M16 camouflage helmet. The helmet is marked BF64 indicating production by F.C. Bellinger, Fulda. The helmet still retains its full original camouflage scheme and its partial liner. This is a textbook world war one camouflage helmet in very good condition!

A classic Q64 M40 three tone or Normandy camouflage helmet. The helmet retains its original vibrant camouflage up to 90%. Also, its original liner and chinstrap. The helmet is truly a stunning example of a three tone camouflage helmet in very good condition!

A grouping consisting of 4 pictures, a Fallschirmjägerabzeichen, Verwundetenabzeichen im Schwarz and Eisernes Kreuz II klasse named to Gefreiter Warscheid in Fallschirmjäger Nachrichten Abteilung 4. Gefreiter Warscheid jumped into Crete in 1941. He engraved his name and unit into the back of his Fallschirmjägerabzeichen. The photos are interesting and show details such as tan painted helmets and a light coloured bakelite canteen cup.

Mint condition issue M40 overcoat or Mantel in early smooth wool with green buttons. The mantel does not have any moth holes. One missing button that is obscured by the collar. The size is medium, fitting great for most old hindsgaul mannequins. Finding a nicer greatcoat would be very hard, especially a early example like this one!

A nice original Waffen-SS officers service tunic in very good condition. This is the perfect base for a restoration. The tunic is a textbook Waffen-ss type officers service tunic and does not show any signs of Heer insignia ever being applied. The ghosts and traces of the SS insignia are easily seen; a sleeve eagle, collar tabs and a cuff title. The tunic is a small to medium size but would be a very good base to restore. These tunics are very hard to find as most are either restored as SS or wrongly as Heer.

A nice set of original Zeltbahn accessories. Exactly the amount as was issued to every soldier with a single M31 Zeltbahn.

A very nice example of a pair of Wehrmacht Heer M43 combat trousers or Keilhosen. In good lightly used condition with most if not all of all its original sewn buttons. The wool is in great condition without damages, repairs or insect damage and still has most if not all of the nap and full contrasted field grey color remaining. The size is large and would fit most if not all mannequins. The leg ties have been wartime replaced with elastic, a alteration often seen. The trousers are in very good only lightly worn condition! A great pair for a mannequin that is very hard to find in this condition and size!

Perfect pre war M31 messkit marked HRE 38 indicating production by Heinrich Ritter, Esslingen. The messkit retains its original factory paint up to 99% and would be impossible to upgrade.

Complete set of gas warning flags with 15 flags and tape. Hard to find complete set with its original Presstoff pouch marked cga 40. 

A stunning untouched M42 combat field blouse with all factory sewn insignia. The field blouse is in good used condition with traces of wear. It comes complete with its infantry shoulder boards that are original to the tunic. The tunic itself is slightly shortened. The sleeves are their original length. The size is a medium to large that would fit most mannequins great. Finding a untouched EM Infanterie field blouse is very hard nowadays. They are highly sought after and 99% have their insignia reapplied. The tunic is named in the back to Löble. A stunning infantry field blouse in obvious combat used condition with all original factory sewn insignia! Impossible to find!

Nice original helmet chinstrap marked G.SINGER KLATTAU 1943. In good supple condition, easily added to a helmet!

Pre war German helmet chinstrap with aluminum buckle and pips.
Nicely marked R Larsen Berlin 1938. Impossible to find if you have that nice double decal helmet without a strap. The strap is in very good near mint condition!

A nice original chinstrap in good lightly used condition. Marked 0/0750/0100. The chinstrap is playable and easily installed on a helmet! Hard to find original chinstrap for a mid to late war helmet!

Hard to upgrade mint condition web equipment belt. Never had a buckle installed! This webbing belt is a nice large size 100cm.

A interesting German gasmask and its canister in very good condition. It is named to Unteroffizier H. Brauwer of ArtillerieRegiment 1716. Artillerie Regiment 1716 played a vital role in the battle for Normandy. Spread on the rear flank of Omaha– and Sword beach. Also stationed in Breville and Merville where the British 6th Airborne division landed. One or two kilometers from the beaches or in the middle of the British drop zone they must have had a lot of action on June 6, 1944. A can from my personal collection, in very good, lightly used condition with a VERY interesting unit marking! A must have for any D-day collector!

A typical pre war breadbag in good used condition. Inside nicely named to Peter Schmitt.

A nice late war Tool pouch for the MG34 and MG42 machinegun. It is made out of the late war Presstoff material and is in good condition with all internal fittings and leather straps. The leather is nice and supple and the Presstoff is nice in colour. The pouch is marked inside the closing flap gut 4. Interestingly the leather parts are not stitched but riveted! A rare late war pouch in good, unused condition!

Minty original Waffen-SS EM/NCO M43 Gaberdine field cap. Nice with originally sewn BeVo trapezoid. Marked inside with 58 which is a considerably nice large size!

Hard to find spares in good condition. Nicely marked 43 bmj on the strap!
