Waffen SS

Excellent changing mitt/pad which has been invented and issued with the MG34 / MG42 tool pouch for changing the overheated barrels of the machine guns. This example is in very good condition and is very hard to find as a spare to complete the tool pouch!

Beautiful and scarce tool kit for the s. Gr. W. 34 (8cm) or Schwere Granatwerfer 34 (8cm) or 8cm heavy mortar. The metal case I in good condition and retains a lot of its original factory paint. The white stencils are clear and readable. The webbing belt loop is still intact as well as all the hinges and closings. Scarce original tool kit for the heavy 8cm mortar in good condition!

Hard to upgrade matching bayonet marked 41 fze indicating production by F.W. Holler, Solingen. The bayonet is matching to its scabbard with the serial 8725 f and has nice clean bakelite grips. The bayonet is in very good uncleaned, unsharpened and matching (!) condition with 99% of its factory blueing. The bayonet comes together with its original tropical frog. The frog is in good used condition and has never been separated from the bayonet. Stunning late war bayonet with its original frog!

Beautiful and very rare canteen made by the Dutch company VerBliFa (De Vereenigde Blikfabrieken) during the German occupation. The canteen is in used but still good condition and isn’t damaged in any way! VerBliFa (De Vereenigde Blikfabrieken) was the main manufacturer of the Dutch pre 1940 army mess kits, canteens and other stuff, these items were made in the exact same way. Stamped sheet metal and then tinned! Most of the examples are found in The Netherlands as well. The canteen cup is missing a lot of its shiny silver coloured finish. The canteen and cup are both unmarked which is often the case with these Dutch produced canteens. Maybe one of the rarest variant of the M42 canteen there is, and for sure one of the best canteens I have ever offered!

Excellent early canteen with the unusual brown straps and with all parts matching in good used condition. There are no real damages, only traces of usage! All parts of the canteen are perfectly matching and nicely marked MN 40 which indicates production by Menesa Metallindustrie GmbH. Neunkirchen-Saar in 1940. Hard to find an early canteen with all the parts still matching and in untouched condition. Excellent early 1940 dated untouched canteen with appealing brown straps in good used condition!

Heavily used mid war production M31 canteen. The aluminium flask and the cover are marked HWSD 42 which indicates production by H.W.Schmidt, Metallwarenfabrik, Döbeln in 1942. The brownish cup is nicely marked with the 3 letter code gfc which indicates production by Julius Posselt, Gablonz an der Neisse, Reichsgau Sudetenland. The cup is MPD marked with the material S which indicates the usage of Phenolic resin (bakelite) with sawdust as the filler material. Sadly the cup is heavily damaged and repaired as can be seen on the pictures!

Beautiful late war produced “M40 pattern” Kriegsmarine breadbag together with the textbook wide carrying strap. The breadbag seems to be a late war production with multiple early features such as the leather reinforcements and the aluminium hardware. Excellent Kriegsmarine breadbag in stone mint condition!

A textbook late war mapcase in a stunning and most likely unissued condition. The mapcase is nicely marked RBNr. 0/0323/0003 in the inside of the closing flap.

Clear mapcase insert in good used condition. These where issued with map cases and used to keep maps dry in the rain and folded on the right place. These where also used to draw on to the smooth transparent surface to keep the maps unmarked. This example is nicely marked J.H. Kofler Jr., Bad Homburg. K.G. 1937.

A very nice late war P38 soft shell holster. The holster is nicely maker marked 0/0833/0007 indicating production by Hans Römer, Neu-Ulm. Simply a superb late war P38 holster in mint condition, can not be upgraded!

3 matching equipment straps in unissued condition. All the individual straps are unmarked but all have the same construction futuristics and are a real matching set. Nice set of 3 matching straps, perfect to finish a mannequin!

Textbook early war production M38 gasmask. The mask is the green fabric pattern and nicely marked E 40. 

Unissued example made out of thin green fabric. This is a textbook late war production. The pouch features some wear from storage but is in good condition.

Early rubberized gasoline pouch in good used condition. Used examples in good condition are harder to find than unissued pieces!

Very nice pre 1940 Voigtlander Bessa camera. The camera comes with its original pouch and manual. The camera is a typical camera as used by soldiers during world war two. A very nice camera that is probably in good working condition. The camera takes 120 film that is still available today. The camera would be a nice accessory to a personal affects or pocket litter display.

Tent pole or Zeltstock 01 in good condition which was issued to every soldier together with the Zeltbahn. (Every soldier was issued one pole, two pegs and one Zeltleine together with his Zeltbahn.) The tent pole is constructed out of wood with blued steel reinforcements on both ends, the tent pole measures approximately 37cm as it should! The tent pole is nicely marked G. Hausen Kbg. 1941 which indicates Gustav Hausen, Sägewerk u. Holzbearbeitungsfabriken, Königsberg, marked tent poles are hard to find!

Unissued brown K98 sling marked bla 1944 indicating production by E. G. Leuner, Bautzen. The leather is somewhat stiff but plyable and should ideally be treated with a leather care product. Very hard to find in this condition, perfect to add to a mint K98.

Stunning late war steel painted Waffen-SS belt buckle which is made by Overhoff & Cie, Lüdenscheid. This is a textbook late war production which is unmarked but clearly shows all the Overhoff features. The belt buckle is in used condition and still retains a lot of it’s original factory silver finish!
