Original German militaria

A mint pair of gaiters or Gamaschen for Polizei troops. These are meant to be worn above the M37 Schnurschühe.

Large period map of Arlon area with large parts of Luxemburg and the Ardennes. A very nice and colourful map from 1943!

Hard to find spare in good used condition. Length approximately 50cm. Often missing from many helmets, this is a perfect addition to a helmet with some patina.

Nice near mint late war Zeltbahn with nice strong colours and colour bleed through the pattern. Most if not all of its originally sewn buttons and nicely marked R.B.Nr.. Very hard to upgrade!

Nice original rubberized gas cape pouch marked gek R41/41. 

A stunning Heer M40 EM Feldbluse in unissued condition. The garment was manufactured by Gebr. Klein, Mönchengladbach and accepted in the depot in Amsterdam in 1941.  The grey Einheitslitzen are period factory sewn to the collar. The breast eagle is period factory zig-zag sewn. The picture coming after the breast eagle shot shows the stitch line, underneath the lining. The shoulderstraps are white rayon piped indicating Infanterie. The garment was most probably kept for walking out and has not been shortened or tailored in any way. This is really a stunning and textbook EM M40 tunic in minty condition with a set of original Infantry EM shoulderstraps that would be very hard to upgrade!

A extremely rare short tan presstoff carrier complete with the short wire cutters. The pouch is made of presstoff and nicely marked dated 1943. The short wire cutter pouches made out of tan Presstoff are considered extremely rare!

Death card of Obergefreiter Josef Schmalzl. Killed in action during the Ardennes battles at Cherain. Schmalzl was 35 years old and was buried 10.2.1945 in Charem, Belgium. Later to be reburied in Recogne.

Nice original pictures showing Waffen-SS soldiers marching and posing in and in front of wooden barracks and buildings. The back reads about a award ceremony 19.11.1941.

A very nice original general assault badge or Allgemeines Sturmabzeichen. Nice example with 99% of its original finish remaining. Unmarked but most probably made by Biedermann & Co.

Nice original Bronze infantry assault badge or Infanterie Sturmabzeichen in Bronze by Rudolf Karnet. The badge is in good lightly used condition with most of its original bronze finish remaining.

Death card of the Gefreiter Alfons Thalhammer. Killed in action during the Normandy battles 20 years old on 2nd of July 1944 in Saint-Lo. Koller is buried in Orglandes, France.

Very nice original cased War merit cross first class or Kriegsverdienstkreuz mit Schwerter marked 65 indicating production by Klein und Quenzer. The cross is in very good condition with most if not all of its original finish. The case is a typical type which is correct for this cross. The case is marked 1.9.1944 which most probably was the date of issue for the wearer. The case also has the rare and most desirable square shaped closing button.

He was wounded 29.8.1941 noted as Paksplitter Linkerarm indicating he received shrapnel to the left arm while he was in Leningrad! He was awarded the Verwundetenabzeichen in Schwarz 2.2.1942.
