Rare late war breadbag with riveted front straps in mint condition. Stunning late war variant that belongs in any specialized equipment collection!

As all 1945 dated equipment; this particular Zeltbahn is rare. The Zeltbahn is in near mint condition with most if not all originally sewn buttons, the ropes and its beautiful vibrant colours.

Beautiful untouched, uncleaned M42 combat tunic with full wartime sewn insignia. The garment was found hanging on a attic in Germany a few years ago in this exact state. The garment retains the full patina that is nowadays very hard to find. The garment retains its factory wartime sewn breast eagle and kragenlitzen. The sleeve shows the communications badge and a late war subdued Obergefreiterwinkel on top of remnants where once a Gefreiterwinkel must have been. This garment surely saw action and if you’re looking for a stunning combat garment; this is it!

Very rare original speckled(!) green bakelite canteen cup in very good condition. Belongs in any canteen collection!

Excellent and textbook example of a M40 Polizei helmet, made to M35 specs. The shell is marked SE64 indicating production by Sächsische Emaillier und Stanzwerke A.G. The helmet is a rarer example being made to the M35 specs; one of the first made with the M40 shell and its factory installed zinc single banded liner. The helmet retains its factory applied smooth green paint up to 90% with both decals in excellent condition. The dome of the helmet retains a name. Very nice and textbook example of a Polizei helmet that would be very hard to upgrade!

Typical tropical breadbag as issued to members of the Afrikakorps in very good, lightly used condition.

A very nice VDNS 37 marked M31 messkit indicating production by Vereinigte Deutsche Nickelwerke/Nickel-und Stahlwerke, Schwerte. A very nice pre war messkit with 80% of its original factory paint remaining.

Nice original butterdish in good condition. Theres a small crack in the bakelite but its in one piece.

Messkits and canteens enameled in these colours are attributed to be made by the Deutsche Emailwarenfabrik (DEF) run by Oskar Schindler. Messkits and canteens, unmarked, in these specific colours have been found in the old factory storage of the former DEF. There are several other makers of enameled steel canteens and messkits but they all carry different characteristic features such as markings or specific colours. No other maker utilizes these light gray and blue colours and lacks markings. The light blue “wash” on top of the enamel is one of the typical features. Rare to find combination!

A nice matching bayonet marked 43 asw indicating production by E. & F. Horster & Co. Solingen. The blade has not been sharpened or polished retaining up to 95% of its original blueing. The tip is slightly damaged; please see the detailed close up. The bayonet is matching to its scabbard with the serial 2497 and has nice clean red bakelite grips and would be very hard to upgrade!

A nice matching numbers bayonet with frog marked Carl Eickhorn 1938 indicating production by Waffenfabrik Carl Eickhorn, Solingen. The bayonet is in very good condition!

Genuine wartime used example; not coming from the Ukranian hoard find. Very nice lightly used condition with most of its factory paint remaining. Nicely marked WC43. 

A perfect matching pair of Waffen-SS Erbsentarn camouflage reversible parka gloves. Worn together with the dot pattern parka and trousers. Very hard to find!

Late war Waffen-SS Erbsentarn camouflage trousers. The trousers are a very good substitute if you don’t want to spend twice the price but need a original pair for a mannequin. The trousers are in worn condition and have been washed, at one point where dyed blue. The trousers retain its original glass and metal buttons and is marked in the rear as it should. The size is a medium fitting most modern mannequins.

A late war Italian wool M43 Heer field blouse in good used condition. The tunic is a nice large size fitting most if not all modern mannequins. The tunic comes with factory machine sewn Litzen, a restored breast eagle and a set of late war shoulderstraps with repaired tongues. Late war combat tunic in good used condition complete with shoulderstraps!

A very nice lightbrown K98 pouch marked 0/0396/0027 with all dividers and undamaged.

A stunning mint breadbag marked RBNr.0/0750/3572. Interestingly the straps are made of webbing and rayon, a uncommon and very late war feature. Exceptional breadbag!

Superb breadbag in mint condition. For sure the best one I’ve had to offer. If you just want one mint example and want the nicest one out there; this is it.
