Wehrmacht

Textbook pair of M37 pattern gaiters in good condition. The gaiters are nicely dated 1942 with the early pattern with leather reinforcements!

Textbook original Waffen-SS Totenkopf collar tab, typical Dachau type construction in mint condition.

Rare left facing Heer embroidered officers eagle in uniform removed condition. This left facing officers breast eagle is the first I have encountered and think it will be a nice match with a left facing belt buckle!

Nice and original Croatian Ustasha collar tab cypher in good condition. These were sometimes also sewn onto M43 caps.

Textbook original Luftwaffe cap eagle in unissued condition.

Excellent stainless steel spoon which is part of the Wehrmacht field cutlery set which were issued to enlisted men, NCO’s and officers. The spoon is nicely marked C&CW 42 which indicates production by Colsmann & Co, Werdohl in 1942. As is the case with almost all parts of the field cutlery sets this fork is marked with an clearly visible eagle which clarifies it’s Eigentum der Wehrmacht. Perfect as a spare or to complete a field cutlery set!
