Waffen SS

Very nice pre war straight E-tool marked bovo in good used condition with its original leather carrier.

A very scarce original low turret tan sniper scope case marked jvb. Still retaining up to 40% of its original factory tan paint. In a sea of fakes, here is a real one in obvious, combat used condition!

A perfect pair of issue riding boots or Reitstiefel. The pair is in mint unissued condition and retains its wartime applied soles and heels. This mint pair would be perfect for a cavalry or combat officer display!

A nice and salty M1 helmet with a second pattern pressed paper Hawley liner. The helmet is in heavily used and abused condition, showing signs of bad storage. The shell retains its originally sewn chinstraps and cork textured paint. The shell shows various stress cracks which are typical for this type of helmet. A combat relic!

Rare and exceptional pre war short gasmask canister with its original straps, mask and ID paper. The small paper ID tag inside the lid reads F. Reibstein 31110 – the latter indicating the Feldpostnummer to the SS division Totenkopf. It is very hard to find SS-ID’ed items and especially in this condition. The canister and its gasmask are both in very good condition.

A very nice light brown P08 Luger holster marked DLU 1940 indicating production by E. Lüneschloss Solingen. A excellent holster in a stunning colour and condition.

Late war Luftwaffe issue flare cartridge storage bag made from heavyweight red lined canvas. The zipper has big metal fittings that can be used wearing thick flying gloves. The thick RK marked zipper is in good working condition. Exceptionally rare bag that could hold 4 boxes of flare ammunition.

A nice untouched EM/NCO M42 field cap. The cap retains its wartime hand applied cocade and eagle. The cap is in good worn condition and shows signs of use. The nap of the wool still remains at most places. The shadowing of the unused parts of wool is obvious and natural. The size of the cap is roughly a 56. A beautiful untouched cap, really!

One of the earliest K98 bayonets I’ve encountered. A stunning matching k98 bayonet marked S/175 K indicating production by F. W. Holler in 1934. The bayonet is in stunning condition, with 99% of its original blueing intact. This is a very rare, and exceptional bayonet. Very hard to upgrade!

A great beginner helmet; this was my first German helmet! Textbook late war M42 helmet in good condition with loads of its original paint remaining. The helmets liner is named.

A very nice pair of 7×50 power issue binoculars very popular with front line officers. The binoculars are in good, lightly used condition and would make a perfect attribute for a combat officer display. The binoculars are marked beh indicating production by Leitz. The binoculars are very clear and well collimated. The right ocular is void of a Strichplatte. No double vision, no haze, no mold inside. The strap is nicely dated 1940. A very nice pair of binoculars!

Nice webbing Y-strap in combat used condition. The Y-strap has a lot of patina and would nicely attribute a combat mannequin! The construction on the O-ring cover is unique without leather loops.

A nice second pattern Afrikakorps pith helmet in unissued condition. The helmet is dated 1942 and is size 57. The helmet is complete with its chinstrap and its zinc insignia.

Textbook late war Waffen-SS belt buckle by Overhoff in good used condition.

Textbook Heer EM/NCO issue breeches in good used condition. One repair in the back and some moth damage.

Rare Textbook and matching pair of shoulderstraps for a Untersturmführer der Waffen-SS. The rayon copper brown piping indicates either use by Feldgendarmerie or KZ guards. The straps are in good tunic removed condition and would be very hard to upgrade or replace!

Rare original German reversible winter parka recognition sleeve armbands in unissued condition. These sleeve armbands proved useful on the eastern front where the German and Russian winter camouflage uniforms looked alike and men needed to be able to tell friend from foe in seconds. These armbands can be worn with the dark or red side outwards and are made of screen printed red fabric. I’ve found a few pairs of armbands which is a rare opportunity to buy a original set of recognition armbands – before they run out!

Extremely scarce original pre war Dutch helmet cover or ‘helmdoek’ in unissued condition. These cloth covers were worn on helmets during exercises and only very few examples survived to this day. This is a scarce opportunity to get one of these rare pre war helmet covers in mint condition!
