Waffen SS

Rare original Heer EM/NCO M44 field jacket executed in Gaberdine material. Gaberdine M44 tunics are some of the rarest tunics out there, this one being in very good, lightly worn condition. Both pockets retain a number of award loops and it shows the ribbons for the eastern front medal and iron cross second class. The garment is lightly worn with the sleeves slightly shortened 1 or 2 centimeters. The garment is nicely marked inside for a Heer depot ST44 and the garment shows shadows of the textbook Heer EM insignia. A excellent restoration base for a very rare tunic!

One of the rarest gas masks out there; the Kriegsmarine optical communications gasmask or Optische Gasmaske M-44. This gasmask is only scarcely seen and was issued to troops operating gunsights or range finders. The gasmask is in good supple condition and comes with the air hose that connects to the filter. The mask alone is incredibly hard to find; finding the accompanying case with accessories is even harder. The case comes with the manual in the lid and the tool to set the eyepieces. The case is marked 3,7 on the bottom most probably indicating a certain 3,7cm Flak gun on a ship or emplacement along the Atlantikwall. Super scarce piece in great condition!

A original M40 Waffen-SS Mantel or overcoat in good used condition. The mantel is not to be confused with the Heer/Army type; this cut of Mantel is different in shape, cut, marking and is specifically made for the Waffen-SS. The eagle has been removed from the sleeve and shows a nice ghost, other then that its a nice untouched condition Waffen-SS M40 Mantel. There are several small moth holes. These overcoats are very scarce! The mantel is marked in the back which is exactly how it should be. These overcoats are very scarce!

Rare  and 81 x 61,5 cm large Dutch poster reading Ook Gij behoort bij ons Meldt u bij de NSKK Gruppe Luftwaffe Nadere inlichtingen Verleenen De werfbureau Lange Vijververberg 10, Den Haag. Desirable and rare poster with vivid colours!

Excellent and aesthetic Sumpftarn parka or Wendejacke in good used condition. The parka is in very good condition and retains its nice bright camouflage colours. The parka has no damages, repairs or missing buttons. The camouflage used for the construction of this garment is the so called hard-edged Sumpftarn which was developed in 1943. A very nice late war combat parka! Excellent late war combat parka in very good condition which would be very hard to upgrade!

Matching pioneer side pouches marked RB-Nr. 0/0012/0017. These waist pouches were worn with the rucksack and Y-straps. These are hard to find with the internal dividers and the connecting strap intact. Beautiful pair!

Textbook Heer tropical officers belt in very good condition. The belt retains its buckle with 95% of its factory paint. The belt is maker marked but hard to read. Rare tropical brocade belt!

Stunning three tone Normandy camouflage gasmask canister in very good condition. The canister retains up to 90% of its original three-tone camouflage paint and the long carrying strap. Inside the lid a rubber seal is present indicating this is one of the first gasmask canisters with the “D” stamped on the bottom. Inside the lid is also a small paper label naming the lid to Obergefreiter Fenz. The canister is complete with a mask but it is a different number and name to the one on the canister. However, the numbers are just 10 apart and most probably accidentally switched during the war as the canister was found like this in France! The canister is a really nice example of a subtle three tone camouflage scheme and would nicely attribute any camouflage orientated collection!

Rare early Erel Sonderklasse crusher cap or Knautschmütze. The cap is a nice size 57 and in good used condition. The cap is made by Erel which is one of the most well known cap producers. The cap was on display in La Gleizes December 1944 Museum for over 20 years. The sweatband in the cap was replaced at some point because it is heavily worn. Inside the caps liner one can see a large amount of stains showing the character of the cap which was obviously heavily worn throughout the war. The insignia to the front of the cap are nicely handsewn. The cap has been discussed on the Wehrmacht-Awards forum. A rare infantry crusher cap that would make a great addition to any combat officers display!

A nice original pair of MP40 magazine pouches marked CLG43 indicating production by Ernst Melzig Lederwaren, Liegnitz.
A nice mint condition pair that would be hard to upgrade!

Unique Luftwaffe single decal M42 camouflage Stahlhelm marked ET66 indicating production by Eisenhüttenwerke-Thale. The helmet has a nice large size 66 liner and a shortened chinstrap which is original to the helmet. The helmet retains its original camouflage paint and decal up to 90%. The helmet has a typical dark green camouflage paint that can be found a lot on helmets found in the Netherlands. The dark green camouflage paint has been dabbed onto the helmet and has multiple fingerprints in the paint. The helmet is nicely unit marked and named inside II Flak 21 H. Mackart. The helmet is a great example of a original camouflage helmet in great condition!

Stunning pair of Waffen-SS officers collar tabs for the rare rank of Hauptsturmführer in uniform removed condition. A very nice matching pair with black wool on a off-white buckram base. Hand embroided runic insignia with a hand sewn silver border. Very nice pair!

A late war Waffen-SS Wachmantel in very good condition with factory sewn Dachau pattern sleeve eagle.. A lot of these mantels can be seen in pictures of the Ardennes offensive worn by members of Kampfgruppe Hansen and in and around La Gleize. These mantels where specifically made for the Waffen-SS and lack the french cuffs the Heer types have. The mantel shows a little to no wear and age and would make a great addition to a late war Waffen-SS combat mannequin!
