Original German militaria

Nice original death card to 18 year old Grenadier Ludwig Girmann,  killed in action 10 June 1944 in Normandy. He is buried in La Cambe, Normandy Block 42 Grab 182. 

Nice original Hitlerjugend buckle marked M4/39 indicating production by Assmann & Sohne, Lüdenscheid. The buckle is a nice injection molded example in very good condition.

Nice pre war example with supple leather and aluminum hardware and dated 1939. Hard to find a pre war example!

Outstanding unissued M44 dot pattern Waffen-SS Erbsentarnmuster camouflage tunic marked Betr. Ra. The blouse is a nice unissued example with all originally sewn buttons and strong contrasting Erbsentarn colours. Nicely marked Betr. Ra. indicating production by Betriebswerk Ravensbrück (Texled). The garment is a true depot queen in mint condition!

Original leather MG34 tool pouch. Hard to find early leather variant with the internal hardware for MG34 tools.

A nice original mint and textbook Splittertarn cover marked 419 M42. The cover is photographed on a size 66 helmet shell. The cover is unworn and undamaged, the colours are very strong. These helmet covers where issued to a lot of different units later in the war but one of the most prominent early adaptors was the Grossdeutschland division and later the 21. Panzerdivision in Normandy! Scarce to find a original Splittertarn helmet cover in stone mint condition and most probably the best one I’ve had to offer!

Stunning and uncommon Luftwaffe reissue helmet. The helmet is marked SE64 indicating production by Sächsische Emaillier und Stanzwerke A.G. The helmet retains its original non-reinforced liner and LBA marked chinstrap in great condition. The helmet is a typical but rare Reissue example with a rough overpaint masking the pre war blue paint and decals. The rough reissue overpaint is topped off with a decal and naming in the skirt of the helmet. The helmet is unit marked to 1. Kompanie Flak Regiment 29 5. Batterie inside the dome and underneath the leather. The helmet is named to Oberstleutnant Krichler in the skirt of the shell.  The helmet would be a very nice base for further research for Oberstleutnant Krichler which is a very high rank! Very hard to find a Luftwaffe reissue helmet, this is the first and best one I’ve seen!

A very nice unissued M42 helmet marked CKL64 indicating production by Eisen- u. Huettenwerke, Thale, Harz. The helmet retains its original paint for 99%. The helmet was recently found during household clearing in Germany and has never been in a collection before. The helmet is still dusty and uncleaned, easily cleaned with a soft brush to reveal its stone mint paint finish!

Stunning example of M35 Q66 marked Heer/Waffen-SS camouflage helmet indicating production by Quist. The helmet is externally completely covered in thick concrete paint. The named leather liner and chinstrap are original to the helmet. The helmet is a killer example of a wartime camouflage helmet with thick concrete paint completely embedding the liner pins. The decals are both overpainted but visible through cracks in the paint. The helmet is named to Stabsarzt Schneider – one of the highest ranks in the medical department of the Wehrmacht. This would be a impeccable helmet for any helmet collector, impossible to upgrade and textbook Rautarn camouflage helmet!

Rare reversed Splittertarn camouflage reversible parka trousers in good used condition. The trousers still retains vibrant colours. The trousers is void of repairs but there is one small cut to the knee on the white side. The size is a good medium and would fit most if not all mannequins. Very hard to find camouflage pattern!

Stone mint pair of M40 trousers for use in the Heer or Waffen-SS. The pair retains all of its originally sewn buttons and retains 100% of the nap in the wool. Guaranteed the best pair on the market today. The trousers are in mint condition with absolutely zero issues.

Stunning untouched Coastal artillery field blouse for a Kanonier der Küstenartillerie. The garment retains fully originally wartime sewn insignia. The garment is in mint condition and retains its original paper factory tag. The garment retains all of its originally sewn buttons. The garment is a very nice and very hard to find original Coastal artillery field blouse for a Kanonier der Küstenartillerie. Perfect and unique piece for any Kriegsmarine or Küstenartillerie collector!

A late war Waffen-SS Wachmantel in very good condition with factory sewn Dachau pattern sleeve eagle.. A lot of these mantels can be seen in pictures of the Ardennes offensive worn by members of Kampfgruppe Hansen and in and around La Gleize. These mantels where specifically made for the Waffen-SS and lack the french cuffs the Heer types have. The mantel shows a little to no wear and age and would make a great addition to a late war Waffen-SS combat mannequin!

Rare late war Sanitäter rucksack marked Bollmann Tuttlingen 1943. Nicely named H Josinski on the D-ring base. The rucksack is complete with the period factory sewn Red Cross insignia. Extremely scarce piece in very good, lightly worn condition!

A very nice complete M38 gasmask in unissued condition. Very hard to find with 99% of its original factory paint. Complete with all straps and accessories it should come with. Some light rust on the top but unissued and very hard to upgrade.

Super rare German army medical or Sanitäter red cross recognition vest. These vest where issued and worn by Sanitäter and Krankenträger to be easily recognized in battle. The vest is in good unworn condition and nicely marked Wk. V. Ulm. A centerpiece to any Sanitäter mannequin!

Stone mint late war Heer Splittertarn Zeltbahn marked Reichsbetriebs-Nr. 0/0954/0004 and dated 1945(!). The Zeltbahn is a very nice unissued example retaining all original sewn buttons and all three guide ropes. Simply the best Heer Splittertarn Zeltbahn I’ve ever had the pleasure to offer!

Nice original pre war belt in dark brown colour and a large size 100 fitting for most mannequins!

A perfect pair of issue riding boots or Reitstiefel. The pair is in mint unissued condition and retains all of its wartime applied hobnails and heels. This mint pair would be perfect for a cavalry or combat officer display!

Nice early/pre war gasmask strap set. Complete set with the long and short strap in matching type and condition.
