Rare rubber gasmask canister

5,000.00

Unique opportunity to acquire the rarest of all gasmask canisters. This is probably a pre war trial run for the Kriegsmarine or Kradschützen or motorcycle troops. I have only seen one other of these gasmask canisters for sale; otherwise these are impossible to find. The canister is in good used condition with some small damages. The lid is loose which seems to be a factor on all of these. The gasmask canister retains its original long strap with leather reinforcement.

Here is a topic containing wartime photographs of these canisters in use; https://www.wehrmacht-awards.com/forums/forum/wehrmacht-uniforms-and-equipment/wehrmacht-equipment-forum/925773-anyone-recognise-this-type-of-gasmask-cannister
