Wehrmacht

A very nice pre war named gasmask named to Grenadier, later Gefreiter H. Wappler. The gasmask is in complete original condition with most of its original paint remaining. The straps and mask are original to the set. The mask, filter and case have been named multiple times. A very nice pre war gasmask in untouched condition.

A nice and minty late war Heer Zeltbahn with Italian painted zinc buttons and a nice and bright print. The Zeltbahn is complete with most if not all of its period sewn buttons. It is undamaged and complete with the two stake ropes. Finding a nicer M31 Zeltbahn would be very hard!

Nice pair of late war EM Schulterklappen for a Panzergrenadier in mint condition. Rayon piped and lined textbook construction. The shoulderstraps are complete with a set of chainstitched cyphers indicating Panzergrenadier Regiment 15. Nice set!

Typical issue wristwatch in good used condition. The watch is made in Switzerland by the Record Watch Co. The watch is serialized D 422769 H (Dienstuhr Heer). The wristwatch is a typical Wehrmacht issue, not private purchase piece. The watch still carries its original supple period strap which are mostly replaced, removed or simply damaged. As far as I know the piece is not in working condition so it is sold as is. A real Dienstuhr can be the finishing touch on a mannequin!

Nice complete pre war compass by Busch with sling and pouch, very hard to find!

Nice lot of items issued with Sanitäter pouches. Hard to find military issued medical accessories and nice to fill a pouch. The contents are void of any medical substances!

A nice brown K98 sling in very good lightly used condition. Nicely marked N Waldow Prag 1943. The strap is supple and would be a very nice addition to any K98, K43 or MP44. Hard to upgrade!

Rare to find Wundzettel book with 20(!) wound tags. These paper tags where to be worn on the uniform when wounded. Hard to find in good condition, this booklet is a important part of the Sanitäter equipment!

A rare ammunition pouch marked RBNR. This pouch did not come from the hoard find of G43 / K43 pouches that flooded the market. Original G43 pouches that do not come from the Ukranian army stock are rare! The pouch is in very good condition and would be very hard to upgrade!

Nice pre war chocolate brown lightweight Luftwaffe Y-strap. Full of unit markings, a interesting piece in very good condition!

Nice matching pair of chocolate brown LBA(S) 38 marked K98 ammunition pouches. One of the pouches is marked LBA(S)38 and matching maker and date markings. One of the pouches lacks the internal dividers.

A very nice minty Splittertarn M31 Zeltbahn in unissued condition. Nicely marked Rudolf Jäger 1942. The Zeltbahn is free of damages and has most if not all of its originally sewn buttons. The colors are nice, bright and full of contrast. Hard to find in this condition!

Nice complete 1944 dated gasmask. Hard to find in this condition with 99% of its original paint and complete contents.

Late war M43 pattern Heer EM infantry shoulderstraps. Hard to find matching pair for M42/M43 and M44 tunics.

A very nice pre war canteen in mint condition. All the parts are marked M&C 39 which is a unknown manufacturer. A rare to find maker mark, especially in this complete and mint condition!

A great used gascape to match with a used gasmask canister. The gascape pouch is nicely dated 1940. Hard to find in this worn condition with the original strap!

A very nice 6×30 Dienstglas complete with strap and rubber rain guard marked ddx indicating ddx indicating production by Voigtlaender u. Sohn AG, Braunschweig. The binoculars are in good clear condition with the rangefinder or Strichplatte still retaining in the right reticle. A nice piece in good condition!

A great used gascape to match with a used gasmask canister. The gascape is nicely dated 1943. Hard to find in this worn condition with the original strap!

Messkits and canteens enameled in these colours are attributed to be made by the Deutsche Emailwarenfabrik (DEF) run by Oskar Schindler. Messkits and canteens, unmarked, in these specific colours have been found in the old factory storage of the former DEF.  There are several other makers of enameled steel canteens and messkits but they all carry different characteristic features such as markings or specific colours. No other maker utilizes these light gray and blue colours and lacks markings. The light blue “wash” on top of the enamel is one of the typical features. The messkit is in good used condition and has one hardly noticeable period repair to the hinges. A very nice and rare messkit!

This ensemble was photographed on Omaha Beach on the 5th of June 2019.

Rare bakelite gas detection device or Gasanzeiger. Extremely scarce to find with its original metal sleeve marked Draeger.
