Wehrmacht

Clear mapcase insert in good used condition. These where issued with map cases and used to keep maps dry in the rain and folded on the right place. These where also used to draw on to the smooth transparent surface to keep the maps unmarked. This example is nicely marked R. Ehrhardt, Poessneck 1936. Nice pre war example!

Very nice typical private purchased map ruler in good condition. This example is made by GKS and this is a type Z planzeiger complete with the rare paper pouch which also describes the other patterns which were available. These planzeigers or map rulers manufactured by GKS are often encountered in untouched mapcases and are a must inside any mapcase!

Nice original heavy zinc Marschleistungen in good, used condition. Sadly the top part is broken off. Hard to find zinc example!

Distance meter or Kurvenmesser. The Kurvenmesser is in great working condition. Although these are mostly advertised as ‘ Wehrmacht ‘ or being a issued piece; these are all privately purchased. To be quite frank; 99% of the offered examples on the market today are most probably post war, with this one being no different other then it being advertised correctly. These pieces are however exactly the same as the 1940’s examples as the factories that made these never really changed the ‘winning’ concept. A nice mapcase accessory in good working condition at a sharp price.

Rare pre war pattern compass manufactured by Busch (Emil Busch A.-G., Rathenow) with a bakelite housing. This is one of the rarest patterns to encounter from all the compasses. The bakelite housing is in good condition without any damages. Nice example!
