Wehrmacht

Rare Panzer school training and recognition wooden Sd. Kfz. 171 Panther Ausf. This model once was used in the barracks of a Panzer school where it was used to indicate armor thickness, maneuverability and maintenance. This model is fully handcrafted out of wood with several small moving parts. The machingegun rotates in its ball-turret, as does the large turret with the main gun elevating. The driver viewport can be opened or closed. The front fenders can be tilted upwards. The wheels are all moving and the tracks are intact. One of the two rear crew stowage compartments on the rear has been professionally restored. The original factory tan paint is fully remaining. Some models were made with paper labels underneath or with stamped markings of it being army property. The Panzerkampfwagen VI Panther Ausf. A is a iconic piece that would be a centre piece in any Panzer collection. The Panther retains most of its original details, wheels and accessories. This example is a double out of my personal collection. Most of these are incomplete or classed as scrap iron Panzer wrecks; this one is ready for display. Out of all the Panzer recognition models this is probably the most sought after model that would nicely display with Panzer Wraps or Panzerkampfabzeichen!

I can ship this piece in a good, sturdy double layer box with the turret removed from the hull. I will take great care if I do but pickup is an option.

Pre war Pioneer saw with leather carrier marked Böttcher & Renner, Nürnberg-O 1937. The saw is nicely marked E. Winterhoff & Co. Remscheid H 1941, WaA 127. Nice, early piece in good used condition!

Tall early M38 gasmask set 3./Flg. Ers. Battl. XII  and named Feldwebel Schulte. The unit marking indicates 3. Kompanie Flieger Ersatz Battallion XII which was a replacement unit stationed in Trier, later moved to Fürth, Bayern. This unit supplied replacements to many different Luftwaffe units ranging from Flak to Fallschirmjäger units. The gasmask is a nice and complete example, hard to upgrade.

Short Luftwaffe blue M38 gasmask set. Beautiful example with a 1937 dated canister which was reissued for the Luftwaffe which is also the reason for the large WaA Prüfungsamt marking inside. The canister started out in a pre war green paint which was repainted during the war Luftwaffe blue paint. It retains its beautiful pre war canister straps with leather reinforcements. Excellent piece!

Typical short M38 canister dated 1937. It was first issued in the typical pre war green colour and was repainted with a brush applied dark green colour when the war progressed. It retains its pre war straps with leather reinforcements. The mask is a nice A1B variant with 1937 dated filter. The mask and the canister retain the same number. Nice used set!
