Wehrmacht

Textbook US 7th Armored division patch with a greenback in good uniform removed condition.

Textbook late war Y-straps with angled D-rings maker marked 0/0485/0002. Hard to upgrade!

A very nice set with all the pieces marked 86. These were issued to enlisted men, NCO’s and officers. The set is in good condition and would normally be one of the standard breadbag items!

Stunning named and unit ID’ed coastal artillerie or Küstenartillerie tall M38 communications gasmask in untouched condition. The canister is externally fully overpainted in the typical sea green or battleship grey showing loads of patina. The mask itself is a navy issued communications gasmask with a large Kriegsmarine acceptance stamp inside. The straps of the mask are named to V.D. Lippen 47587. This is interesting because it most probably is a Dutch or Belgian name and because 47587 indicates it was a U-Boot unit. All in all a superb set that would be hard to upgrade and surely gives more room for further research!

The field post number indicates;

47587
(30.7.1941-28.2.1942) B.d.U.,
(8.9.1942-11.3.1943) 12. U-Flottillen-Kommando

Textbook original P.08 Luger holster marked eqr 41 indicating production by G. Passier & Sohn, Sattlerwarenfabrik, Hannover. 

Very nice lightly worn M42 Heer pattern greatcoat. As far as I can see no damage or repairs. The garment retains all the wartime sewn buttons and Gefreiter sleeve insignia. The Mantel is named to Mader. The Mantel is a nice large mannequin size! Typical garment for the Ardennes offensive!

A very nice light brown Walther PP holster marked gjh 1943 indicating production by Rudolf Conte, Nachf. Theodor Seibod, Fabrik fuer Lederwaren, Offenbach. Superb example in unissued condition!

Scarce and rare early first factory made pattern MP38 pouch in perfect condition. This type of pouch was made in webbing construction with webbing loops and straps with square metal tips. This type of pouch was issued to the Heer, Luftwaffe and Waffen-SS. This is one of the hardest to find pouches in perfect condition that would be very hard to upgrade.

Rare late war M45 pattern simplified Heer EM Infanterie shoulderstraps. These late war simplified pattern straps finished in Italian wool and bordered with white rayon piping. Beautiful pair for a M43 or M44 garment in Italian wool.

Superb issue Kriegsmarine type breadbag with its matching wide strap both named Gabriel. The breadbag is a early example with aluminum hardware. Very nice and textbook example!

Beautiful and extremely scarce untouched visor for the Fabriekswacht which was later reformed to the Vlaamse Wachtbrigade. This rare Flemish collaboration paramilitary organization had the task of guarding Luftwaffe airfields and factories who manufactured for the Wehrmacht. The cap is in good condition and retains its originally attached eagle , cockade and Wolfsangel. The cap was obviously worn a lot and shows a nice patina. Very hard to find cap with period mounted insignia.

A nice original Wehrmacht Heer shoulderstrap for Hauptfeldwebel der Infanterie

Very nice pre war steel vehicle first aid kit or Verbandkasten. The case is complete with its label, metal splint and 8 bandages. Very hard to find in this condition!

Scarce mint Lightbrown Luftwaffe 37M pistol holster marked jsd 1942 indicating production by J.Schmalzeder Erben, Dresden. Impossible to upgrade mint holster!

Very nice US paratrooper wrist compass by Superior Magneto. Nicely dated and marked. These compasses where also known to been worn over the sleeve, the shoulder loops, webbing, or at the ankle over the jump boots. Wrist compasses were used both by officers and enlisted men. A very nice example that would be hard to upgrade.

A very nice second pattern shovel carrier with folding E-tool. A nice set in good condition!

Nice original and complete Tupfer fuhr Hautentgiftung & Riechmittel.

Nice original pair of issued fur lined flying boots for the Luftwaffe. For sure the best pair I’ve seen so far. Textbook boots in very good condition, leather strong and supple and the buckles and press studs without oxidation.

Stunning unit marked M36 tunic for a Unteroffizier der Artillerie Regiment 42. The garment retains all full wartime sewn insignia and is modified to the wearer. The garment has pockets moved, waist and length tailored and period added cyphered shoulderstraps for a Unteroffizier in Artillerie Regiment 42. The Unit is a good medium size and is nicely maker, size and unit stamped inside. The left breast pocket retains a set of period sewn loops for a award. The garment was sourced directly from the woodwork in Germany a few years ago and has only been in one collection ever; some of the original pocket litter still retains inside the pockets. A very nice garment that would be a choice display piece!

Nice pair of M39 trousers for use in the Heer in the Steingrau or stone grey colour. The pair retains all of its originally sewn buttons and retains 80% of the nap in the wool. Nice medium size that would nicely finish a 1940 mannequin.
