Nice original Airborne troop carrier patch. Nice British made example that was issued to C-47 Dakota personnel during D-day, Market Garden and Varsity.

Textbook uniform removed US 5th Infantry Division patch in good condition.

Excellent M35 Heer double decal helmet with period masked tricolor decal. The helmet retains its factory fitted liner and period placed chinstrap both in good worn condition. The helmet retains its Heer decal up to 90% and its tricolor decal is nicely period masked in Feldgrau paint. The helmet is a typical helmet as issued and worn in the 1940 campaigns when the tricolor decal was ordered removed or masked.

Extremely scarce original Waffen-SS Panzer crew member trousers in smooth Erbsentarn camouflage fabric. One of a handful known in the collector community; this is the pinnacle of collecting camouflage items of the utmost rarity. The trousers are in very good, IMO lightly worn condition. The garment retains all but one factory sewn buttons. There is a small period handsewn repair to the back of the seat, otherwise it’s undamaged. Both leg tie straps are intact as is the internal belt and the inside pockets. The trousers are in a good, medium to large size fitting most modern sized mannequins. The garment is marked 393 which is the only known maker for these trousers in this material and a typical Waffen-SS manufacturer code. There are some light paint stains on the trousers which don’t distract too much of the vibrant and contrast-filled colours of the Erbsentarn pattern used in the construction for these trousers. A rare opportunity to purchase real Waffen-SS camouflage Panzer trousers in smooth(!) material!

I usually don’t post items to the top; but this one deserves a spot next to the Black SS Panzer wrapper!

Textbook late war Splittertarn Zeltbahn in very good condition. The zeltbahn is constructed from a coarse late war material with most of its factory sewn Italian buttons. The head hole and some of the material on the sides is the late war ‘carbon’ overprinted Telo Mimetico material. Scarce late war variant !

Beautiful late war Splittertarn Zeltbahn in very good condition. The Zeltbahn retains most of its factory sewn buttons and comes in beautiful contrastful colours.

Beautiful and uncommon Tan painted Wehrmacht water Jerrycan or Wasserkanister. The canister is dated 1943 and still retains its original factory paint job. Uncommon example in great condition!

Textbook world war two issue Air Medal case in good condition. Rarer then the medal itself; a nice opportunity to complete it!

Uncommon Gebirgsjäger 1L canteen with harness for the Labeflasche. The canteen is un as found condition but is rare because it has the carabiner hook attachment. The closing buckle to the front is damaged, the cup is not matching to the flask; but it has so much character!

Rare original 3 period MG34 training film reels. These three reels measure about 300 meters in length in total; I have not unrolled them totally but seeing the ends of them shows that they have interesting images on them. These would be great to digitalize and a great source for MG34 research.
