The helmet has a damage to the rear of the helmet most probably caused by a bullet or shrapnel. The helmet is named to Bauer written in the leather and in the rear of the helmet. The leather has one bit that has one small bit of blood stain near the crown. The rear split pin has been addorned with a leather strap with a carrying D-ring marked DRP or Deutsches Reichs Patent. This D-ring was installed to wear the helmet on the Y-strap. All in all its a great original single decal M40 with great details.

A complete pre war EM34 or Entfernungsmesser 34 in complete condition. These where issued with all sorts of artillery pieces and machine guns. They where used to zero in these heavy weapons to shoot accurately on long distances. The range finder comes complete with all the accessories it should have and is expected to be issued with. All carrying straps, slings, covers and even the adjustment tool are there. The optics are clear and give a nice 11 times magnification. The set is still in this pristine condition because it after the war it was reissued and kept in a Norwegian army depot. It has always been stored well! The set is complete with tripod and cover, range finder and cover and the Justierlatte and its rare to find cover. It is hard to find a complete range finder as they are often incomplete.

Very nice and genuine camouflage gasmask canister in good condition!

Rare TOP SECRET tactical marked British map issued for operation Market Garden. The map shows the last known German positions as of 11 september 1944. These maps were issued to the RAF and intelligence sections of all units involved with Market Garden. Without doubt these also saw use on the ground during the operation. The map is a standard example of Arnhem with a rare Top Secret red overprint showing important bridge crossings, German Pak, Flak and MG positions. These maps were mostly used up and ended up falling into German hands. The map is in good used condition with numerous pencil drawn tactical markings but no damages. Very rare and superb Market Garden issued map in superb condition. Surely a spectacular item for any Market Garden oriented collection!
