**Fresh To The Market** WW2 German M42 Combat Helmet With Chinstrap A totally untouched & fresh to the market German M42 helmet complete with its original chinstrap & pigskin liner. This helmet is typical of the mid to late war German steel helmet worn by the infantrymen of the Army & SS devoid of insignia as per the order of 1943. On close examination it can be seen that an army decal partially exists under the paint no doubt covered to comply with the 1943 regulation. Exterior is factory painted in a rough slate grey paint now exuding an appealing naturally aged patina from prolonged loft storage. All three liner pins are undisturbed & 100% original to the helmet . Interior evidences a buildup of dust , dirt & grime between the liner band & shell , the band is tight to the helmet with no movement whatsoever. Faint markings to rear of the shell read \'CKL64 \' & \'*732\'. Liner is of the slightly later pigskin with no damage whatsoever & its tightening cord still present. Finally , leather chinstrap is still supple & with grey painted steel buckle.

\'Sleeper\' WW1 German Sawback Butcher Bayonet In Frog 1917 A WW1 German pioneers issue sawback butcher bayonet complete with its original brown leather frog. This bayonet has \'Mauser Oberndorf\' maker to ricasso with \'W\' cypher for Prussia to back of blade & \'17\' date. Both of its wooden grips are in good order with pommel catch fully functionable. There is general surface rust age to some metal surfaces which I have left as found. Interestingly the bottom edge of the frog has been fashioned with a tipped curve as was the preference by older serving German soldiers of the period.

\'Winter Uniforms of The German Army \' Book - Werner Palinckz Comprising 448 pages, this illustrated book is the first comprehensive reference work covering winter uniforms used by the German Army, Air Force and Waffen-SS during the period from 1942 to 1945. The book is intended for collectors, historians, model makers and those with an interest in military history. Following the attack on the Soviet Union and the first experiences with the Russian winter in 1941-42, it quickly became clear to the powers that be standard German Army uniform was completely unsuitable for waging war in the east, where temperatures often dropped far below zero. This made it necessary to create a new uniform capable of dealing with the climactic conditions on the Eastern Front. This book describes the creation of the Winteranzug 42 winter uniform, the first of its kind, and the following versions for the army, air force and Waffen-SS later in the war. First the complete winter uniform - balaclava, parka, trousers and mittens - is illustrated schematically in all its details.

2 X Long Equipment Straps ( One Luftwaffe 1938 ) Two equipment straps one is a brown Luftwaffe issue with 1938 date the other unmarked. Can be used to hold the zeltbahn roll on the belt equipment.

An \'As Found\' WW2 German Blue MP40 Magazine Pouch A fabulous midwar blue web MP40 magazine pouch recently acquired directly from NW European sources & offered as it came to me straight from the outbuilding. Constructed entirely from heavy blue web material its three closure straps are each metal tipped with belt loops to rear also in blue webbing . Side strap for securing to Y straps complete with D ring. Although due to age & wear it is difficult to see any markings I believe this to be an example of those that carried the 3 letter code \' gyc\' produced around 1942 . It is evident that this is a combat used piece with each closure flap still bearing witness marks to the storage of magazines. Having lain untouched in a barn or other outbuilding for many years it has what appears to be a rodent gnaw to one part & a tear to one flap.

Rare WW2 German Pioneer Officers Visor Cap By Carl Kuhlmann A stunning German Pioneer officers visor cap to the rare maker Carl Kuhlmann. Kuhlmann worked under licence for the highly regarded cap retailer Peter Kupper whose high quality standards were evident on every one of its contracted caps this piece being no exception. Made of a fine high quality black piped doeskin wool both front insignia are of the early \'leichtmetall\' & still tight to the cap. The lesser seen oxide green underside to peak & sweatband as well as a velvet insert running around the circumference of the cap between the sweatband & the body accentuates the fine workmanship that could be purchased by an officer at his own expense . The ornately patterned front section of the green sweatband incorporates a cleverly designed system \'Stirndruckfrei\' which reduced pressure on the forehead when worn & was again only found at the higher priced end of private purchase caps. The celluoloid dimaond bares the name \' Carl Kuhlmann ,Holzminden \' & \'Stirndruckfrei Deutches Reichspatent\' . I have closely examined this cap & can find only a couple of very very minor surface only tracks upon very close inspection. Fabulous high quaity piece .

The Awards of the Heer - Vol. II by Dietrich Maerz/Bernd Hartmann This was the long awaited Volume II of the most complete and comprehensive overview of the decorations a German soldier of the Heer could be awarded. Volume II not only covers such well-known decorations as the Spain Cross, the Campaign Shields, and the Cuff Titles. For the first time in the English language the Flower War Medals, the Motor Vehicle Driver Badge, and the Bravery Medal for Eastern People are covered in detail. Each chapter is divided into history, regulations, design, the decoration itself, award documents, cases, miniatures, fakes and 1957 version if applicable. The final chapter covers the manufacturers and for the first time all the producing companies, including the LDO members and all of the known 142 companies with a Präsidialkanzlei-Number, are presented with address and products manufactured for the Heer. This volume is indispensable for every serious collector of the awards of the Heer. Hardbound, in color.

The book will be an important tool for the novice as well as the advanced collector. For the first time, every Luftwaffe decoration has been documented, supported by the original decrees as outlined in the Luftwaffenverordnungsblätter, correcting and clarifying some of the misinterpretations found in earlier literature. This book gives a solid referance source for the decorations of the Luftwaffe branch of National-Socialist Germany

Another helmet that recently manifested itself after years of forgotten storage it is offered as it came to me uncleaned & uninterfered with straight from the war. It would appear that it was refinished fairly late in the war or after the end of decal usage in 1943 as both decals are painted over . The underside of the helmet shell remains in its original M35 smooth paint. There is some age to the helmets underside & a small part of the leather liner which is dark stained & decayed. Chinstrap remains intact & interesting to note that the soldier has trimmed it slightly on its long section & shortened the pointed end to suit his own fit .

Tunic has a classic three holed rayon lining with some other wartime tailoring evident in the form of the tunic shortened as it was the fashion to have only a short skirt at the back.

Initally starting life as a Luftwaffe single decal M40 it has had at some point an Army decal applied over the top of it leaving the wings of the former visible on either side. Both showing natural age & wear commensurate to the rest of the helmet it is clear that this is a wartime expedient & the first I have encountered carried out so crudely. Exterior paint of the shell is a dullened blue grey with the underside of the rim being a more obvious Luftwaffe blue. Difficult to make out the maker & size due to age patina of the paint hpwever the rear lot number of \'T760\' is just about visible.

Constructed from a lightweight doeskin fabric it has issue quality red backed collar tabs & matching cuff insignia as per regulations. Both are totally original to this piece. The bullion breast eagle is original to the tunic as other ranks could purchase their own so it is not uncommon to see bullion eagles on other ranks Waffenrocks as well as as a whole other plethora of individual high quality features that could be bought by the wearer at his own expense. Faint traces of a proof marking just about remain above the interior pocket these applied to private purchase garments after inspection of suitability . Often these markings were never applied or poorly applied so can be very difficult to still see today. Corporal chevron to left sleeve.

WW2 German Beaded M40 Luftschutze/Home Front Helmet A very appealing \'been there\' example of the M40 Beaded Luftschutz helmet . These M40 helmets had failed to pass the stringent Wehrmacht quality controls for ballistic integrity & so were reworked with the addition of the raised beading around their circumference in order to readily distinguish them from satisfactory helmets. Although sub standard combat helmets they were deemed suitable for issue to Home Front personnel & as is the case here had a satin dark blue paint finish applied with a Luftschutz decal that was at somepoint later removed . This may well have been due to being used by another branch of the Civil Defence personnel , wartime photos show some beaded helmets in wear with decals & some without.

Overall in very good used condition with wear to nap of cloth overall & some minor moth tracks to one side in places.

Upon close inspection one can see small traces of the national shield under the paint on its right side . To the left side is an excellent army decal which is largely intact & showing service wear commensurate with the whole helmet . It is well documented that \'NS\' made helmets almost exclusively used decals by the firm CA Pocher this appearing to be such an example.

All three of the liner rivets are totally original to the helmet having matching green paint. Underside of rim marked \'Q62\' with lot number \'732\'. To the dome of the shell can be seen faint hand written initials of what appears to be \'F.K\' referring to an owner with faint traces of an Obergefreiter name to rear of the liner .

Showing much heavy wear & a dent to the front left most likely caused during battle this helmet received a tan overpaint on which short green swirls were applied over the top with a brush & the decal slightly subdued with the same green.

WW2 German M40 Beaded Luftschutz Helmet A very appealing \'been there\' example of the M40 Beaded Luftschutz helmet . These M40 helmets had failed to pass the stringent Wehrmacht quality controls for ballistic integrity & so were reworked with the addition of the raised beading around their circumference in order to readily distinguish them from satisfactory helmets. Although sub standard combat helmets they were deemed suitable for issue to Home Front personnel & as is the case here had a satin dark blue paint finish applied & the Luftschutz decal applied to the front for Luftschutze use. This specimen has a low quality leather liner & chinstrap fitted which is typical of several variants that can be found within these civilian issue examples.

WW2 German M40 Double Decal Police Helmet An M40 rough grey textured double decal police helmet in very good condition with a high proportion of both decals remaining.

This tunic is of the classic M40 cut , basically the same as its M36 predecessor but now with field grey collar as of 1940. Equipment belt hooks to both front & rear. Tunic has been worn by an Unteroffizier with NCO tress added to collar & universal green on light grey collar litzen seen as of 1940. The bevo breast eagle is very professionally machine sewn to the tunic & has been in situ for a very long time. I have left both shoulder boards on the tunic as it came to me these for rank of Unterfeldwebel with white Infantry piping. Two award loops to left breast pocket. To left arm is sewn a totally original field grey backed Krim shield showing this NCO to be a veteran of the fighting & capture of the Crimean region under Field Marshall Mansteins command in 1941/42 . Interior of tunic is lined, typically, in beige cotton twill with dice stamped size markings & 1940 dated \'Munchen\' inspection marking. All three of its original collar liner buttons still present to underside of collar. A tunic that has clearly been worn on combat service it has a very appealing amount of wear to nap of the cloth & no unsightly holes , damage or moth.

WW2 German M40 Luftwaffe Helmet A totally original bringback German M40 Luftwaffe helmet which I originally acquired from private hands back in 2018. An M40 single decal this helmet still has its original chinstrap & unmolested liner firmly in place. The luftwaffe \'dotted wing\' decal is recorded as correct for the manufacturer \'SE\' as here. Its distinctions , compared to decals on other helmets, are the downward turned eyebrow & flatter chest ( See Pg 94 Helmet Decals of the Third Reich By Ken Niewiarowicz ) . Marked to the shell rim as an \'EF64\' for the firm \' A.G.Fulda \' with a batch number of 22776 this conforms exactly with that recorded in the Brian ICE reference as a single decal luftwaffe helmet produced between the 190 & 1942 period. They are known for having the least clear markings as can be seen. Condition wise this helmet has been in the shed for many years however is in surprisingly excellent condition. The decal is nearly 100% intact & the factory blue grey paint of the outer shell shows only minor rust age upon close examination. All three liner pins retain their blue factory paint these again being nearly 100% intact. The underside of the helmet rim was cleaned by the previous owner with a minor abrasive & the fresh rust of the chinstrap fittings given a wipe over. The chinstrap has never been off of the helmet & is maker marked to the firm Hermann & Sohne . It is dated however it has been stamped off centre so only the top part of the date can be seen. There is a small \'nick\' to one edge of the long strap & I am unable to unbuckle it due to it having been in this position for many years & now stiff with the ageing of the metal. Certainly a time capsule of a piece & most likely one of the last surviving \'bringback\' pieces .

WW2 German M40 Luftwaffe Single Decal Helmet An M40 Luftwaffe single decal helmet that has seen hardly any wear if any at all. Most likely liberated straight from stores this helmet sports a second pattern Luftwaffe decal which is certainly above 90% intact. Liner & chinstrap both excellent with no damage the strap having faint visible markings & 1940 date to underside of pointed end.

WW2 German M40 NCOs Tunic A German M40 four pocket combat tunic with NCO tress to collar & Bevo breast eagle & collar tabs.

With grey collar , four pleated pockets , scalloped flaps & a five button frontage this is the classic M40 model. A veteran of the Russian Front as denoted by the \'frozen meat\' medal ribbon there are also two further award loops to left breast pocket most likely for an Iron Cross. Grey on green bevo breast eagle is neatly handstitched in situ with universal tabs & NCO tress to collar. Two of its horn buttons remain for attachment of collar liner. Interior lining shows heavy service wear with dice marked size stamps & manufacturer \' W.Kreulze Uniformfabrik Wurzburg \' . The depot stamp \'M41\' denoting 1941 is also visible.

WW2 German M40 Reissue Luftwaffe Helmet - Double Named Liner A German M40 Luftwaffe helmet with decal removed & original chinstrap intact. This helmet has a factory applied blue paint of the Luftwaffe with a second blue coat over this applied by brush. The ghost outline of a previous second pattern decal can be seen in obliging light this removed as per regulations. Fitted with a reinforced aluminium liner band the leather sheepskin liner is double named one being \' \'J.O.Skaland\' & the other in German lettering which I believe to be \'Juttemann \' with number. Tigthening cord intact. Chinstrap has grey painted steel buckle with maker name & date 1940. There is a very small hardly noticeable nick to the leather where it comes over the front lip of the helmet. I am unable to discern the maker of the helmet due to the thick handbrushed paint under its rim . Good combat helmet of the Luftwaffe.

WW2 German M40 Single Decal Luftwaffe Helmet A very good large sized M40 single decal Luftwaffe helmet with soldiers name \'Krause\' written onto the liner.

This may well relate to a French commando ( No.4) as well as British. Helmet is finished in slate grey with good proportion of army decal remaining. To underside of rim is the name of the soldier in in large handpainted letters which appears to be \' OHOTA \' quite possibly relating to one of the many foreign troops manning defences whilst serving in the Wehrmacht during the Normandy Landings. This has mostly obscured the markings on the shell however appears to be \'ckl\' with a size of 64 or 66. The original chinstrap is still present with faint markings to end . The short buckle strap has some minor corrosion to one end. A helmet that has been left uncleaned & completely & as it was brought back with research potential.
