Original German militaria

Nice and thick original Reichsmarine issue blanket. The blanket is in good used condition with lots of nap remaining. Some small moth damage but mostly in very nice condition. The blanket is nicely dated 1929. The Reichsmarine consisted of ‘just’ 15.000 men at its high point and its items are very rare!

Scarce original pair of Waffen-SS M43 Keilhosen for enlisted man and non commissioned officers in good worn condition. The trousers retain most if not all of their originally sewn buttons and full leg ties. There is a well-executed period repair on the front of the trousers under the left front pocket. The trousers are otherwise in good, used condition. The inside of the trousers are nicely finished with herringbone rayon material typical for Waffen-SS issue garments. The cut is typical for Waffen-SS issue Keilhosen with straight cut pockets and the back reinforcement ending at the side seams. Not to be confused with Heer/Kustenartillerie trousers! A textbook Waffen-SS M43 Keilhosen, much harder to find then a pair of Erbsentarn camouflage trousers!

Perfect late war Y-strap marked RBNR on the O-ring cover. A very nice and textbook example. Nice with blue metal front hooks.

In very good condition. A little dirty but unissued !

A perfect mint late war set! Unmarked buckle by Bruder Schneider, Wien.

A textbook three-tone Normandy camouflage M42 helmet as used by Heer and Waffen-SS. The helmet is in good used condition with vibrant colours. The helmet retains its original liner and (broken) chinstrap that have never been removed from the helmet. The helmet is pictured and published in the book Tylisz, D. (2011) Normandy 44 – German helmets. The helmet retains up to 80% of its original camouflage paint and is a typical example of a original three-tone Normandy camouflage helmet!

Textbook original Gasplane in great condition with its early type rubberized cover.

A great original MP38 u. MP40 pouch in good imo unissued condition. This one has only seen storage wear and is complete with all straps in very good condition. The pouch is nicely marked Otto Koberstein Landsberg 1942. A nice original MP40 ammunition pouch in very good condition!

A stone mint pair of Luftwaffe M40 trousers or Fliegertuchhose. The trousers are a good mannequin size and still retain most if not all of the nap on the wool. The garment still retains its original factory paper tag indicating production by August Sauer Uniformfabrik. Inside nicely size marked and LBA(S). A stunning pair in stone mint condition that would look great on a mannequin and is truly impossible to upgrade.

A nice late war grey equipment belt marked RBNR inside the leather tongue. Hard to upgrade piece in a good mannequin size!

Rare late war brown wool M44 trousers in good used condition. The garment is still in its salty original condition with lots of character. The garment retains most if not all of its originally sewn buttons and most importantly the M44 trouser belt. Hard to find late war M44 trouser in a good size and a nice brown colour!

Rare brown pattern Splittertarn Zeltbahn. These Zeltbahns with brown colours where only made for a short period, probably for a trial run. It retains most if not all of its originally sewn buttons. Otherwise it is in very good condition with nice strong colours! These brown pattern Splittertarn Zeltbahns are hard to find and this one is the best one we’ve ever acquired!

A textbook M43 field cap that has been stripped of its insignia. Finished in mid war German made wool with a full rayon lining. The caps retains two of its period sewn buttons of which one seems a period replacement. The cap bears a ghost of a trapezoid type insignia used by both the Heer and Waffen-SS. The cap is in nice lightly worn condition and would easily be restored with worn insignia. The cap is roughly a size 57 which is a great mannequin size!

A stunning mint tinted goggles as used and issued to MG gunners. Rare two find complete set with spare ear straps, case and original manual!

Stunning Q64 M40 three-tone camouflage helmet with vivid colours. The helmet is nicely marked Q64 indicating production by Quist. Textbook Normandy three-tone camouflage pattern helmet in very good condition. The helmet retains up to 90% of its original three-tone Normandy camouflage and is one of the best specimens I’ve seen so far. The helmet retains its original liner and chinstrap. The liner and its three matching pins is original to the shell which is obvious through the overpaint that is in the inner rim of the helmet which also covers the top of the liner band. The split pins retain remnants of the camouflage paint but are mostly bare due to their base material. This is a typical treat to the early nickel coated split pins. They are however original to the helmet! The helmet is really a great example of a Normandy camo helmet and would be very hard to upgrade. If you are looking for a stunning great condition three-tone camouflage helmet – this is it!

The best black hardshell P38 holster I have ever found. Nicely marked with the logo of Cristof Neuner Lederfabrik and nicely dated 1943. Can’t be upgraded.

 

 

 

 

Stunning mint Waffen-SS M44 Erbsentarn Tarnfeldbluse or Dot 44 camouflage tunic. The garment is in stone mint condition with its originally zigzag sewn sleeve eagle. The colours of the pea dot camouflage are all strong and vibrant. The tunic retains all of its mint and originally sewn buttons complete with its tan glass buttons on the cuffs and bandage pocket. The garment features all of its originally sewn green tunic buttons marked CTD. The collar is a unusual large model which is typical for this manufacturer. The garment is mint and can’t be upgraded.

A nice mint condition pair that would be hard to upgrade!

Nice pre war belt with dark brown leather. The belt has a lot of unit markings typical for this type of belt. The size is around 90/95 centimeters. Hard to find a pre war Luftwaffe marked belt!

The liner is also tight and original to the shell. The soft size 55 leather liner is in good, used condition. The chinstrap shows wear and nicely marked on the end. The helmet is marked CKL62 indicating production by Eisenhüttenwerke, Thale. The helmet still retains up to 90% of its original factory textured paint. Authentic wire camouflage helmets like this one are hard to find, and this one is in great condition.
