Original pre war first pattern Wehrmacht issue vehicle first aid kit or Verbandkasten dated 1937. Excellent first pattern example!

Original British MKII paratrooper helmet in used condition. The helmet is a textbook example but is missing the padding and chinstrap. The helmet retains up to 80% of its period factory paint and factory installed liner dated 1943 in size 7 1/2. The helmet is not complete but can still be displayed in a cabinet or on a mannequin.

Excellent M36 field blouse for a Oberleutnant der Gebirgsjäger. The garment is a typical EM example that has been upgraded for wear by officers. Not to be confused with a privately purchased dress tunic, this is the field tunic without French cuffs and wide pockets. The garment is lightly shortened and has typical hand applied embroided insignia which in my opinion looks period applied. The garment is a very nice field blouse that would nicely display in any collection!

A typical reissue M35 helmet that has been reconditioned during the war. Textbook Q62 Heer reissue helmet in good used condition. Externally wartime overpainted with decal on top of the pre war double decal base. The helmet retains its original factory fitted liner and chinstrap and paint up to 90%. A nice and textbook reissue helmet in good condition!

Aluminium coffee container which was part of the standard field kitchen equipment. The container is nicely marked auo 1941 which indicates production by Metallindustrie G.m.b.H. Werk in 1941. Beautiful original example in an almost perfect condition.

A nice original pair of K98 ammunition pouches in mint condition. Nicely marked RB/Nr. 0/0561/0163. Hard to find matching pair!

A very nice original 12×60 binoculars marked blc indicating by Carl Zeiss. The view is good and would be very hard to upgrade. Various types of internal mechanical sunshades work perfectly. The rubber is in good soft condition and complete. Not a very easy to find optical device without post war French modifications.

Textbook tall M38 gasmask canister in very good condition with all straps and leather reinforcements. The canister is fitted with a nice set of late war Tan Presstoff tipped straps.

Textbook pair of Gebirgsjäger boots in good used condition with a pair of original laces. The size is a nice large size fitting most if not all mannequins. Nicely unit marked G.A.R 79 which indicates that the original owner served in the Gebirgsjäger Artillerie Regiment 79. A nice pair to finish a mannequin with!

A rare last ditch Erzats bayonet frog, constructed from recycled materials. The green canvas is the same material as the ones used for the late war produced bread bags. Very hard to find in this outstanding lightly used condition.

Matching bayonet marked Berg & Co 1939 indicating production by Berg & Co. The bayonet is matching to its scabbard with the serial 2531 and has nice clean bakelite grips. The bayonet is in a good uncleaned, unsharpened and matching (!) condition with almost 99% of its factory blueing.

Outstanding pre war matching K98 bayonet marked W.K.C. 1937 indicating production by WKC Waffenfabrik G.m.b.H., Solingen-Wald in 1937.  The bayonet is matching to its scabbard with the serial 5471f and has nice clean wooden grips. There is one small damage to the push locking lug but that could easily be replaced. The bayonet is in a good uncleaned, unsharpened and matching (!) condition with almost 99% of its factory blueing that would be very hard to upgrade!

Matching bayonet marked Berg & Co 39 indicating production by Berg & Co. The bayonet is matching to its scabbard with the serial 1821 and has nice clean bakelite grips. The bayonet is in a good uncleaned, unsharpened and matching (!) condition.
