Scarce original set of spare glass lenses for the Kradmelder goggles. Very hard to find and in good unissued condition. If you have one of these expensive goggles with broken or missing lenses; this is your chance to complete it!

Rare original bakelite head torch or Stirnlampe for use with MG and Mortar crews for reading firing tables and maps. These torches are often incomplete or heavily damaged. The torch comes with the original cable and elastic in good condition. The on/off switch has a crack and is loose but can be easily placed back into the corner. This is one of the rarest torches I’ve been able to offer and also the best one I’ve ever seen!

Very nice original original can of US gas detection paint marked Paint liquid vesicant detector M5 type 2 Cincinnati Ohio. These paints where used by American troops to camouflage equipment but also used on WD motorcycles. The paint inside is still liquid. The can was found 25 years ago from a small lot in Normandy.

Death card of Anton Pommer, Soldat in a Artillerie Regiment. Anton was killed 10.7.1944 south west of Caen in the vicinity of Carpiquet and Hill 112. Anton Pommer was most probably a member of the 12. SS Panzerdivision Hitlerjugend.

A very clean textbook original Waffen-SS belt buckle marked O&C ges. gesch. indicating production by Overhoff & Cie, Lüdenscheid. This buckle is rare and near mint condition and would be very hard to upgrade!

A very nice original pair of dust goggles marked GW 42. The elastic in the band is still strong and the glass is still in one piece. A very nice and textbook pair as seen on the two original photographs. The central nut has been replaced which is a common treat to these goggles. A nice pair of goggles to add to a helmet.

Typical pre war piece with three hole construction. Hard to find!

Very nice original Gebirgsjäger equipment pouch. These where used and carried inside the Gebirgsjäger rucksack. The colored labels indicated what was carried inside.

Very nice original Wehrmacht detonator or Glühzündapparat 26 in very good, working condition. Hard to find in good working condition, complete with both keys and leather bag.

 

Nice early war fur covered rucksack or Tornister. A very nice example in near mint condition. Actually very nice to find one in this condition. Still retains the backstrap and is nicely named on the main straps.

Exceptional named and early pre war 1935 dated M35 double decal Heer helmet marked NS66 indicating production by Vereinigte Deutsche Nikelwerke, Schwerte. The skirt of the helmet is bears the lot number E10 which is one of the lowest lot numbers I’ve encountered. The non-reinforced early pattern Schuberth liner is dated 1935 on the band ánd the round marking on the leather. The helmet retains its originally attached liner and chinstrap marked G. Schiele Loburg 1937. The rim on the helmet is the typical early production with the hand rolled rim. The rear skirt of the shell retains multiple unit markings. One being 11./J.R.10 indicating 11. Kompanie Infanterie Regiment 10. The other marking is also named to Oberschütze Panitz 5./J.R.101. Both these units took part of the Polenfeldzug in 1939 and the Westfeldzug in 1940. The helmets exterior bears two Heer decals with the national three-color partially period removed as ordered in 1940. The helmet retains up to 90% of its original factory paint.

The helmet was recently recovered in household clearance in the area of Dresden which perfectly matches the unit marking inside the skirt. Infanterie regiment 10 was renamed into Infanterie Regiment Dresden in 1935. The helmet has never been in a collection before – very hard to find a real early war combat helmet like this one which both survived the Polenfeldzug in 1939 and the Westfeldzug in 1940! A perfect helmet for a 1940 combat mannequin, this helmet is really a nice textbook example of a pre war combat helmet, this helmet has it all!

A original German army issue blanket. These blankets where issued and used members of the Heer and Waffen-SS. The importance of blankets in a war is very underestimated and where more then often the only comfort a soldier would have.

This blanket is in used condition, it has a rip and the ends are fraying a bit. None the less, this is a original Wehrmacht issue blanket that would be perfect for a personal effects display and very nice correctly folded or strapped onto a Tornister or Rucksack!

Stunning mint condition tropical A-frame complete with all three(!) straps. Nicely maker marked and in perfect condition. Very hard to upgrade!

Rare pre war Czech M34 helmet that was reissued in the Luftschutz. The helmet is in very good condition with over 95% paint and decal. The liner is also in lightly worn condition and nicely named to Frau G. Schäfer in the dome. The helmet has its single Luftschutz decal applied to the side in mint condition. These helmets are very rare, especially a blue one in good condition!

Very rare late war Presstoff container for the Bakelite 6×30 Dienstglas. Nicely marked CXN 4 in mint/unissued condition. Hard to find case!
