M38 gasmask in short Luftwaffe blue repainted canister marked Fpn. 10947

Very nice early manufactured M38 gasmask in its original short and early manufactured canister which has been nicely field overpainted in Luftwaffe blue which perfectly matches the history of it because the mask has been used by a FLAK unit. The canister features a nice but messy written label on the inside, luckily the Feldpostnummer 10947 can easily be made out! Very nice example which would deserve some more research!
