Original German militaria

Rare to find complete rack for carrying the leGrW 36 or 5cm mortar grenades. Nice to find complete rack with all straps that are often missing. These racks are often seen with Norwegian paint covering the metal but this one still retains all of its wartime paint. Hard to find a better one in good used condition!

Very nice original Wehrmacht detonator or Glühzündapparat 40 in very good, working condition. This Glühzündapparat 40 is the wartime pattern that was issued with the large pioneer charge satchel. These small sized detonators work on a smaller distance then the normal leather cased detonators who are considerably bulky and heavy. Unlike its bigger brothers this one was carried in hand, without accessories a external pouch! Out of all wartime blasting devices, this one is the rarest!

Nice original late war chinstrap marked RBNR and dated 1944. Perfect for a M42 helmet!

A very nice original ID tag or Erkennungsmarke marked St. Kp. Gren E.u.A.Btl.12 indicating Grenadier-Ersatz-Bataillon 12 which was stationed in Boulogne, France. The tag is complete with its period purse and lucky charms. Very decorative item!

Very rare original late war officers equipment belt made completely out of Presstoff. Very rare to find a Presstoff made officers belt, perfect for a late war officers display!

Nice original K98 ammunition pouch marked RBNR and retaining all of its internal dividers. I can’t make out the marking exactly but it looks to say 0/0750/0712.

A nice original orange butterdish. It opens in a quarter of a turn like it should and is in great condition without cracks or damages. It is marked on both parts.

One of the hardest accessories for the Wehrmacht hand Sirene to obtain. This sling goes through the slot in the siren’s base for the wearer to sling it over his shoulder whilst operating the device. Incredibly rare strap to obtain!

Rare pair of Heer Feldwebel u. Oberfähnrich shoulder straps in good and matching condition. Very hard to find a pair of shoulderstraps in this rank of Offiziersanwarter!

A very nice mint 1942 dated US tanker trousers in LARGE size. Perfect for a mannequin!

Hard to find canteen in unissued condition. These where issued and worn by women serving on the Flak guns or other auxiliary branches. Nicely marked HWSD 42.

Stunning EM M36 field blouse in unissued condition. The garment features its full length skirt, sleeves and waist. The wool still retains 99% of its original nap and would easily be classed as mint. The garment has one small hole in the left sleeve with a imo period repair. The insignia on the garment are original and hand sewn but in my opinion restored. On the left breast pocket a single set of loops is present for a Infanteriesturmabzeichen. The tunic has a nice early and numbered set of M36 white, wool piped infantry shoulder straps.  Although the insignia are in my opinion restored this is still a very nice garment in near mint condition and very hard to upgrade. Perfect for a May 1940 display!

A nice set of two M36 uniform belt support hook straps. The ends have been made longer at some point. Most probably for a tall soldier! These where found together and are virtually always missing from the garment.

Unique Pre war Dutch sidecap that was converted during the war to a German army officers field cap. The cap is nicely marked J.P. Mol Breda (the Netherlands) and is a good size 57. Scarce and unique piece that I’ve never encountered before!

Nice original wool backed Luftwaffe breast eagle.

Very nice original iron cross first class marked 65 indicating production by Klein und Quenzer.

This is a stunning Soldbuch grouping from 4. Flakersatzabteilung 6. member Heinrich Janssen (born in Düsseldorf), who was among other units in 1942 part of Flak-Regiment Hermann Göring! The Soldbuch grouping also comes with his photo album and dress bayonet.

Unteroffizier Janssen served with several interesting Flak units during the war such as Flak-Regiment Hermann Göring in 1942. The last of those was the II./Flak Regiment 22 which was later renamed II./Flak-Sturm-Regiment 22(mot). He served with the 8. Batterie, which was equipped with 8,8cm Flak guns and was fully motorized. This regiment was subordinate to the Flak-Sturm-Regiment 3 which was part of the III Flakkorps under the command of Pickert. It was deployed between Amiens and Arras in France before the D-Day landings in Normandy. After the landings the unit was sent to Normandy in a hurry arriving a few days later. They where deployed between the Orne and Vire rivers, supporting the ground units and engaging the Allied airforce. And at the end of the Normandy fightings the III Flakkorps provided a significant role in covering the withdrawal of the German forces in the Falaise gap. The unit later retreated to northern France. Unteroffizier Janssen must have seen quite some action in Normandy. The Soldbuch lists the following awards; Verwundetenabzeichenn in Schwarz on 12.9.44 and Eisernez Kreuz 1 and 2 14.9.44. He was severely wounded as he was hospitalized in Hersfeld which is also photographed in the album. A great Soldbuch group to a Normandy veteran who for sure saw heavy action!

The grouping comes with a nice album with 87 photographs with many private shots of 8,8cm flak guns and the famous Sdkfz. 9 Famo halftrack. A great group that would be a great base for further research!

A very nice and early original Infanterie Sturmabzeichen by Juncker. Very nice hollow and early Tombak (!) example in exceptional condition!

Nice near mint Iron cross second class or Eisernes Kreuz 2. Klasse. The cross remains most of its original finish, paint and ribbon. Very nice textbook example.

Stunning example of a mid to late war Q64 marked Heer/Waffen-SS camouflage helmet indicating production by Quist. The helmet is externally completely covered in thick concrete paint. The helmet has a set of period applied metal wire loops for the application of a helmet net. 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. This would be a impeccable helmet for any helmet collector, impossible to upgrade and textbook Rautarn and Tarnnetz camouflage helmet!
