Wehrmacht

Rare original reversible parka in Fluffy Splittertarn camouflage pattern. The parka is in unissued condition with all wartime sewn buttons and strings. The garment is a size 2 which is perfect for most modern mannequins. The garment is really vibrant and has beautiful and vivid colours! Textbook and incredibly rare item in mint condition!

Excellent belt and belt buckle set in untouched condition. Rare early tropical equipment belt in green/olive colour bordered with black leather on the ends. The belt is a typical early example with woven, not sewn eyelets and belt steel hook. The belt is maker marked but unfortunately not readable. The belt is in untouched condition with its steel buckle. Excellent and complete set in untouched condition!

Very interesting non-matching canteen with all pre war parts and 1934 dated flask. Sadly the parts are not matching but the canteen is found as is and seems to be untouched. The rarest part is the flask itself which is marked SMM 34 which indicates production by Süddeutsche Metallwarenfabrik, Mussbach in 1934(!). The cup and strap are dated 37 and 36 and made by different makers as shown on the pictures. This is a sadly mismatching canteen which is quite usual, but still a very interesting one with early pre war dated parts! Early parts of standard Wehrmacht equipment is almost impossible to find and very desirable!

Excellent late war M42 canteen with red steel flask. The red steel flask itself is unmarked. The late war canteen comes in the very nice configuration with brown(!) urea resin (certain type of Bakelite) cup which is MPD coed F7/S which indicates production by an unknown maker. Nice example of an M42 steel canteen with brown bakelite cup in an overall good condition!

Excellent late war produced M31 canteen in configuration with an enameled cup. This canteen comes in a very interesting and unusual but still matching configuration! The flask itself is the M31 pattern constructed out of aluminium and the cup is a typical late war steel enameled type based on the steel M42 pattern canteens. Both the cup and flask are marked AEMA which indicates production by Annweiler Email-u.Metall-Werke in 1943. This is the first time I have ever seen this combination and this is for sure a rare and interesting canteen!

Textbook original paratrooper badge in cloth or Fallschirmschützenabzeichen in very good condition.

A nice black bakelite 6×30 binocular case in very good condition and named on top!

Unmarked bakelite rain cover or Okularschütz in a beautiful slightly used condition. Hard to find as a spare in this condition!

Rare Luftwaffe EM shoulderstraps for Luftwaffe Felddivision. A rare set; albeit a non fully matching it was found on a Fliegerbluse worn as such. Very rare to find and perfect for a Felddivision smock!

Rare original army issue cardboard Scho-Ka-Kola ration chocolate packaging in good used condition. Whilst most of these are made in metal; this is a rare 1942 dated variant executed in cardboard.

Typical wartime “Knijpkat” torch. These flashlights where made utilizing forced labour from Konzentrationslager Herzogenbusch. Unlike most of the wartime used flashlights the knijhpkat doesn’t have a battery but uses a small internal dynamo. The mechanism is still in great condition and the torch still works. Excellent example with a dotted pattern in the paint which looks very nice!

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

Original single NCO Heer Gebirgsjäger shoulderstrap in the rank of Unteroffizier. The strap is in good condition but has some glue residue to the back.

Rare original MP38 u. MP40 manual in good and complete condition. The manual describes the parts, use, drill and firing and maintenance on the MP38 u. MP40. There are many interesting subjects described inside with a interesting added Merkblatt 95 which warns against the dangers of the first pattern MP38 and MP40 bolt without bolt safety and the general treatment of the MP. The manual is a rare example; much rarer then the K98 variant.

Original US made Argus A camera. Typical camera as made between 1936 and 1941, the camera features a bakelite body and a collapsible lens. Typical privately purchased camera as it would find its way into the war in the pocket of a soldier.

Excellent textbook green coloured British helmet net. This is the green coloured pattern with small holes and thick thread. The drawstring is made out of the same coloured thread as the rest of the helmet net. Nice example which would be perfect on a British MKII helmet!

Rare original Waffen-SS camouflage smock in Oak leaf or Eichenlaubmuster in good used condition marked 329 in the left spring pocket flap. The smock is probably the last model of camouflage smock to be developed for the Waffen-SS. These smocks where made from a narrower bolt of material as used on the ‘4-Panel’ Zeltbahns constructed with separately sewn corners. The material used is very thin, if you hold it against the light you can look through it which reflects the late war ‘quality’ the Waffen-SS was dressed with. These smocks where most probably made between 1944 and 1945. The condition of the smock is with wear; there are a few small damages and some of the stitching is damaged. The smock retains the full original tunneled elastic but is no longer functional. I have seen a couple of mint examples of these smocks; but this is the first actually worn example I’ve seen. If you’re after a rare Waffen-SS combat worn Eichenlaubmuster camouflage smock; this is it!
