German militaria

Textbook M42 single decal Heer helmet with its original liner and captured chinstrap. The helmet is in very good condition with up to 90% of its original factory finish. The two front pins in the liner have been replaced at some point, but judging by the liner they have been in there a long time; possibly a wartime replacement.

These Y-straps are made in the Ghetto of Lodz, Poland which the Germans renamed into “Litzmannstadt”. They are made using parts of captured British equipment items. These British equipment items where left in 1940 when the British Expeditionary Force evacuated to the United Kingdom. The Germans sent these for recycling and a lot of work was put in disassembling every British equipment piece and recycling the individual parts into German army equipment. This Y-strap is a beautiful example of the equipment that was made in Litzmannstadt.

The Y-strap is in stone mint condition and shows a lot of interesting British features and details into the construction. Sadly the Y-strap is missing the back strap and is incomplete but it still is a beautiful Litzmannstadt produced Y-strap in further mint condition. This piece would be perfect for restoration or can be displayed on a mannequin as is!

Very nice M31 pattern tropical issue rucksack in very good condition. The rucksack is manufactured utilizing webbing for all the straps.

Excellent late war manufactured rucksack in very good, close to mint condition!
