Original German militaria

Very rare Dutch Germaansche SS-Vormingsbladen 1945 #1 in complete condition. One of the very last to be given out in the last months of the war. Rare coloured edition!

Untouched US Navy M1 fixed bale helmet named Gray. The helmet is a typical M1 fixed bale, front seam McCord example with factory sewn chinstraps. The helmet is externally wartime repainted in blue navy paint. The liner is also overpainted in blue navy paint. The liner is a typical Westinghouse example. The shell is named Gray and is personalized Scharlotte and me. A beautiful and untouched US Navy helmet!

Excellent and matching set of reversible Splittertarn mittens which should have been issued with the parka and trousers (Winteranzug). Nice variant with trigger finger in good condition!

Nice original Sumpftarn parka hood in good used condition. The hood is nicely marked with head size 55.

Rare Erkennungsmarke to the staff in Festungs-Flak-Regiment 31 which was stationed in Cherbourg. Interesting ID tag which has a good base for further research!

Single Heer NCO Unteroffizier Infanterie regiment 119 in good, uniform removed condition.

Single Heer NCO Unterfeldwebel shoulderstrap with black/ dark blue piping. Hard to see which colour exactly; it might be medical, changed to pioneer, or just very dark medical.

Rare Dutch Waldorp torch in its original factory box. Impossible to upgrade!

Early Umbral goggles with leather pouch and separate compartment for spare lenses in a small sleeve.

K98 sling; reversed black leather marked gmo 41. Rare variant with black leather inside!

Very nice M31 “tropical” breadbag in good, used condition. The breadbag features webbing in the construction as well as leather reinforcements to the loops which is for me the first I have encountered this! The breadbag is in undamaged, untouched condition and is nicely named to Schön. Interesting example!

Nice RZM pattern breadbag as issued to the Hitlerjugend. Sadly the RZM manufacturing label  is complete washed out and no writing is visible anymore. Nice original example!

Interesting last ditch production M44 style breadbag with 3 closed loops but without the separate pocket for the RG34. The breadbag is in used condition but has no damages of any kind. There are circular loops sewn on the back which seems to be field applied. Nice and atypical example in combat used condition!

Very nice early pattern Luftwaffe breadbag in very good condition. The breadbag is nicely named on the inside which is sadly not clearly readable but it is a nice sign of usage. Nice early pattern with leather reinforcements!

Textbook M31 canteen which seems to be unissued and only shows some traces of storage and has been found as is! The only flaw on this canteen is that the felt cover has some moth damage. The flask itself is nicely marked OHW 40 which indicates production by Otto Honsel Werdohl in 1940. Excellent textbook M31 example which is a must have for every canteen collector!

Nice 1 liter capacity canteen or Labeflasche in used condition. The canteen itself is nicely marked ESB 42 which indicates production by Eduard Sommerfeld, Berlin, the cup is a mismatch marked MN39 but this is the type as used on the 1L canteens! The canteen is in used condition with some minor flaws but all original parts are present. Nice original example!

Mint unissued US tanker winter trousers marked  small – which still is a large size as they were meant to be worn on top of other uniforms.

These Y-straps are made in the Ghetto of Lodz, Poland which the Germans renamed into “Litzmannstadt”. They are made using parts of captured British equipment items. These British equipment items where left in 1940 when the British Expeditionary Force evacuated to the United Kingdom. The Germans sent these for recycling and a lot of work was put in disassembling every British equipment piece and recycling the individual parts into German army equipment. This Y-strap is a beautiful example of the equipment that was made in Litzmannstadt.

The Y-strap is in stone mint condition and shows a lot of interesting British features and details into the construction. Sadly the Y-strap is missing the back strap and is incomplete but it still is a beautiful Litzmannstadt produced Y-strap in further mint condition. This piece would be perfect for restoration or can be displayed on a mannequin as is!
