4.Incredibley rare Luftwaffe Lotfe 7D-1 bomb sight. This particular model was used in the German Junkers Ju88, Arado Ar234 and Focke-Wulf Fw200 aircraft. Here is a link to more info on the device- (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lotfernrohr_7). This piece appears complete and even has the original instruction/owner's manual. Appears very near unissued condition, possibley never used. The crate is well marked and has some kind of rail system on the bottom. this is a large piece and you would have to either pick it up here or we could find a freight service that would ship it. The crate is designed to keep the sight safe and free floating on springs. An incredible and unique piece that should be in an aviation museum. $5000


 

 

 

 

 

5.German ww2 luftwaffe double barrel flare gun, unissued condition. Later example in phosphate and military blue finish. This gorgeous example was made by Emil Eckold of Suhl (maker code "ojr"). They were the maker of Drilling shotguns I think. the pistol has a really nice finish, about 98%, anything missing is from storage wear, not use. Luftwaffe waffenamts are present. The bakelite grip panels are gorgeous and the screws have never been touched. Overall just a jaw dropping luftwaffe flare gun that is hard to get in this condition. Beautiful! $899


 

 

 

6.German army enlisted belt, large size, in unissued condition. Size marked 95cm and overall length is actually 104cm or 41". Gray painted catch has almost all of the paint. There is what I believe to be a fake SS/RZM stamp on the reverse of the belt. Probably applied by some idiot to make the value go up. Still, it's a mint, large size enlisted belt, which is tough to find. $199


 

 

 

 

7.German WW2 Kriegsmarine life vest. Scarce example that is perfect for an "on deck" German naval uniform you are putting together. Rubber is soft and pliable, perfect condition. Has the air inflation hose. Well marked with red stamped KM "M" for Marine with eagle above it (hard to make the eagle out). Missing the inflation bottle, but otherwise perfect. Excellent overall condition. $599


 

 8.German ww2 wehrmacht canvas action covers for the MG 34/42 and the k98 rifle.

a)MG 34/42 cover- Super example with just storage soiling on it, possibley never used. Blue-gray canvas material, leather straps, rubberized canvas protective pieces (like G43 pouch material). Horse hair protective end pads are perfect. Clamp for gunner's gear is present. No markings I can find, they probably wore off or were light to begin with. Outstanding example $975

b)K98 carbine protector - Nice example, slightly used, but leather is in great condition and very solid. Green canvas shows light wear/soiling, but is solid. Inside leather pad is stamped with the manufacturer ("hck", which stands for Georg A. Lerch, Berlin) and is dated 1941, so it's an early example. Also is waffenampted. You can still see the red pencil marks which the factory cutter used as a guide. Great k98 weapon accessory. The green cover is 20 times tougher to get than the blue cover. $1175


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

9.German WW2 wehrmacht shovel. Shovel is dated 1943 and maker marked REX. Shows use/wear, but is overall excellent. The metal spade part may be refinished, hard to tell, but it is really nice. Hard to get accessory. $199


 

 

10.German WW2 wehrmacht RB numbered y-straps. Very nice, lightly used set, complete and in great shape. They are RB numbered on the reverse of the central holder piece. They have the numbered holes on the auxilliary straps. One of the small loops on the aux. straps has been repaired (see photo), but this is very minor, as the thread came open on it. They show overall light surface wear, but are strong and usable. I would grade them as excellent. Nice set! $350


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

11.German ww2 heavy load bearing pack frame "tragegestell 43". Really nice, crisp example of this type of scarce late war pack, complete with all cargo straps in the same late war gray webbing. Pack is well marked with maker "bvk", waffenamt and dated 1944. Metal frame has much of the original factory dark gray paint. Metal tab ends are also marked "LUX". Some paint wear to buckles here and there, but the pack overall is excellent+. Did not see a lot of bad weather, very lightly used. There were used late war to carry ammo boxes, mortars, etc. Choice! $1250


 

 

 12.German WWII Luftwaffe tropical tall boots. Decent used pair, slightly mismatched, but the same size. Very nice overall with some soiling, but nothing bad. Right boot has more wear and needs to have the end of the leather strap sewn down. Leather on both is very good and also the canvas is still very strong, no problems. Both boots are dated 1942 and they have their hobnails. US size is approx. an 11. Sole measures 12 1/4". if you don't need a perfect, mint pair, these look very good together. $1425 $1050 SALE $950


 

 

 

 

 

 13.German WW2 Gebirgsjäger styrian gamaschen. Superb RB numbered pair that is complete with the leather laces still intact. I don't think these were used, probably the wear is from storage. They are made of a heavy canvas type material. These were worn over the mountain boots. One strap is missing the metal end tip. There is a 2" section of edging missing from the right one. The metal pieces exhibit surface rust. They are otherwise in great shape and are very clean. These were worn by Hochgebirgsjäger and also the Waffen-SS handschar division is seen wearing them. Outstanding and hard to find example. $545


 

 

 

14.German ww2 wehrmacht tropical y-straps. RB numbered, very clean example in light olive/khaki webbing. The metal parts have much of their original gray ordnance paint. Webbing is clean and excellent condition. Leather center piece is RB numbered on reverse. A beautiful, hard to find, tropical example. $850


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

15.German ww2 wehrmacht pioneer (combat engineer)explosives tool pouch. Rare accessory used by combat engineers to keep their tools (scissors, pliers, crimpers, etc), small fuses, wire, etc. in. This is a nice example made of prestoff and one of the only examples I have seen with the inner tool loops still intact. I can't find the maker's mark, I think it probably wore off. The leather shoulder strap is 100% intact and sewn perfectly. The leather parts have a little wear, but this is an overall really nice example of this scarce pouch. See "Uniforms and Traditions of the German Army", vol3, pg196. Choice! $599


 

16.Wehrmacht straps, web and a-frame types.

A)web strap for mess tin. $100

B)Mess tin strap for a-frame, web type $250

C)Mess tin strap for a-frame, web type , very good , some rust stain sold

D)Mess tin strap for a-frame, leather, continental type, excellent SOLD



 

 

 

 

 

 

17.German WW2 issue wehrmacht jackboots. Nice, used pair in great condition. These are about a US size 10. They have had the heel pad replaced and they never had hobnails, they might have been a walking-out pair. The markings on them are gone from use, but I would say they date from approx. 1941/42. If you don't need unissued, these are a perfect pair. $650

 


 

 

 

18.Luftwaffe paratrooper knee pad sets. Two great RB numbered sets, one olive brown, the other fieldgray/green. Very scarce. $1600 a pair.

a)olive brown set, unissued, just light storage wear. Both are RB numbered.

b)green/fieldgray pair, perfect condition, one strap on each pad has a stamped maker mark for the elastic straps. One pad is RB or RF numbered.


 

 

19.German WW2 M24 grenade. Really nice example, possible repainted. Handle is marked with waffenamt and date/maker I can't read. Has the porcelain ball for the pull string. One tiny nail is missing from bottom metal neck ring. Overall a great looking example I have had in my collection for years. If you have a combat display or a combat mannequin, this is the perfect accessory to complete it. $599


 

 

 

 

 

 

20.German ww2 M37 lowboots in cordovan red/brown color. I am selling 2 pairs from my own collection, this is one, the gray pair is the other. Great pair of unique corcoran colored M37 Issue low ankle boots, very similar in color to many Luftwaffe jump boots. They look to be dated 1940, but the number could be 43. They are in lightly used condition, the only real wear is on the soles. They come with original wehrmacht issue laces. Size is marked "29" in German WW2 size, which is about a US 10 or 10 1/2. Only pair like this I have ever seen. Would look great with a luftwaffe uniform. $2000


 

 

 

 21.German WW2 wehrmacht gas masks w/cannisters.

a)field gray cannister, dated 1938, waffenampted on inside lid. 1938 lense replacement packets in lid. Mask has a nice early fieldgray color, lenses dated 1938 and filter is dated 1942. Cannister has light rust in spots, but very nice overall. No short strap, long strap has wear and tear, but is solid. Nice example. $199

 

b)Field gray cannister, dated 1940, has the scarce "microphone" gas mask inside, used by the Kriegsmarine. Cannister is waffenampted, but not KM marked, but mask and cannister are both named to the same person. Cannister has some light rust spots. Mask is 1940 dated and in very good condition. Long strap for cannister present, no short strap. Spare lens packets in lid. Very hard mask to get. $199

 

c)Fieldgray 1940 dated container that has been painted over with dark gray paint, for either army or luftwaffe use. Cannister is very nice, comes with all straps and is named. Includes a blue gas cape pouch and leather strap that is 1941 dated. Mask is a beautiful all black rubber, 1944 dated example. Makes a very nice set for display with a late war set-up or could be used for fallschirmjäger or ground troops. Very nice $250


 

 

 

 

 

22.German ww2 M37 lowboots, unissued in gray and natural leather. I am selling these from my own collection. This pair is unissued and in a very large size (31 1/2 German WW2), about a US 11 1/2 maybe?. Tops are gray colored leather, foot area is natural leather, undyed. On the front area, sole, there is a "41" mark, which is for the date 1941. The maker is stamped on the soles and also inside the ankle "Vereinigte Wiesloch". Also has original issue laces. Large, unissued early pairs like this are extremely rare. $2500


 

 

23.German WW2 MP40 pouch, maker marked clg43 and waffenampted. Awesome original pouch, as you often see these unissued, but this is the first used example I have ever seen. It has some light staining, but is overall excellent condition. Also great to complete a set. Super pouch. $599 


 

 

 

 

 

 

24.German handgrenades, 2 practice grenades and an Imperial German WW1 "potato masher" handgrenade.

 

A)German ww2 wehrmacht M24 practice handgrenade, "41 brb"(later Richard Rinker mark) marked on metal head and wooden handle, handle also "Ub" marked and waffenampted. Has string and porcelain pull. Dent to bottom cap. Near excellent. $400

C)German WW1 M1917 potato masher hand grenade. Beautiful example with a nice 1918 date on the handle, along with the the maker mark. Another line of stamping on the handle notes the fuze timing of 5 1/2 seconds. Head stenciling is mostly intact and reads "vor gebrauch sprengkaspel einsetzen", which translates to "insert detonator before use". Top of head not shown, but stenciled with "W.A.S.R." and a date, which I can only make out the year, 1918. Has the cord and the pull ball. Really nice example. almost 100 years old! SOLD


 

 25.Incredibley rare Luftwaffe BZA dive bombing computer in original crate. This is a multi piece airplane computer bombing system with a host of parts, as well as a sight. Looks mostly complete, but I notice it is missing the instruction booklet. The parts look like they were never used. On the gun sight viewer, the darkened glass piece is broken off in a straight line crack and I have the piece (could be repaired). There is a lift-out shelf tray in the crate and the underside has the main computer, suspended by a series of springs, so it is not harmed. For more information on the computer, go here- (http://www.historyofwar.org/articles/weapons_ar_234.html). It was used in the Arado 234 bomber jet, among other German bombing aircraft. This is a large, heavy item that you will have to pick up or we can find a freight company for delivery. One of a kind item that should be in an aviation museum. Extremely rare. $5000


 

 

 

 

 

 

26.German WW2 Kriegsmarine marked jackboots. Scarce example marked inside on the sole "BAW 26" for Bekleidungs-amt Wilhelmshaven and the size (26). Leather is in overall nice, clean condition with strong stitching. There is one little 1/6" tear on the top of the right boot (see photos), but it is not detractive. These are the variation with the extra leather at the top. The soles have a lot of the original hobnails still present, but some are worn down. The sole measures almost 10 1/2" long, so the size is about a 9 1/2 US. Overall near excellent, decent, worn example. $599 $450 SALE! $400


 

 

 

27.German WW2 Luftwaffe tan tropical rucksack. Fairly scarce backpack to come by, used in Africa and southern Europe. This example is salty, exhibiting use and wear. It is maker marked and dated 1942. Hardware is early aluminum style. One ring on back has a loose area where it is attatched to the bag, but it is still firmly attatched. Overall solid, used example. $245 SALE $210


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 28.German WWII army or luftwaffe clothing bag. Perfect, mint unissued example in OD cotton with tan & olive web straps. Hardware is marked "LUX". Fully complete, even has the internal cord for lacing it up inside. has web straps for carrying it and wearing as a backpack. These were used for carrying extra uniforms, personal belinging, etc, to the front line and were left wherever the soldier was stationed. It is large, measuring over 2' high and 1 1/2' wide. Nicely marked inside the top flap with RB number. One internal snap on an inside flap has a sewn repair, but the pack has never been used. Perfect condition. $220


 

 

29.German wehrmacht large model bolt cutters. Nice example that has seen some use, but is still extremely nice. The bakelite handles are in great shape. The black paint on the metal parts is about 50%, but these look good and were used. Someone scraped off the area to expose the maker code and date (gyr 1942, I think). Overall 25" long. Very nice combat engineer (pioneer) accessory. $299


 

 

 

 

 

30.German WW2 tropical a-frame. This is from my own collection. It is a super example made from different shades of web material including olive browns and olive greens. Webbing is near mint. Metal parts have much of the paint left, are in great shape and the top hooks are H&C marked. Other parts are OLC and LUX marked. Nicely maker marked and the date looks to be either 1942 or 1943. Great condition. $1350

b)named tropical a-frame bag. Excellent lightly used condition, original soldier wrote his name in twice. Super example. SOLD

 

 


 

 

 

 

31.German WW2 wehrmacht issue breadbags, unissued condition. I have RB numbered straps for any for $25 each.

1.olive canvas, near mint. Marked, but I can't read it. beautiful $125

2.green tropical heavier type material, near mint., marked, but only partially visible. SOLD

3.Luftwaffe blue/gray canvas, near mint, marked on back strap as well, but again, hard to read. Looks like the date is 1940, but not sure. Has the early leather pads on the straps. Inside is a stamp that looks to be "Po", but if it is, it was applied post war, possibley for reissue after the war, but it never happened, as this is an unused bag. $160


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 32.German WWII wehrmacht MP38/40 ammo pouches. This is not a set that came together, but they work well. Blue canvas, brown leather. Both were originally maked across the top "MP38 u. 40" in white ink and had a maker and waffenampt. This has mostly faded from the loader side, but some can be made out, the other side still has it fairly visible.

A)loader side- one small repair on bottom front of middle pouch, one belt loop has had it's stitching re-inforced. Very good, used condition. $950 SALE SOLD

B)standard side- very good used condition, markings nicely visible on reverse, belt loops have been replaced post war (Norwegian Army). $650 SALE $550


 

 

33.German ww2 tropical version of the S.F. 14 Z. Gi. rabbit ear style rangefinder optic, used by artillery units. Maker is "bmj", which is M.Hensoldt u. Sohne Werk f¸r optic, Wetzlar. Has the wooden and metal backpack style carrier with all web strapping and sand yellow type color. Interior has provision for other accessories and is custom fit for the optics. One accessory is with it, which is the "baumschrauben" or tree screw. I think this was so you could mount it anywhere to wood, if the tripod was not available. Case has one small brake in the wood, but is very, very sturdy. The optic itself has a range gradiant (grid) in the right lens. It is in very nice condition, with mostly all (98%) of it's paint. The lenses are nice and clear and it's easy to read the range grid. Overall example is in excellent, used condition, in all tropical paint with web straps to the carrier. Scarce. $2499 $1950 SALE $1600

 34.German WWII luftwaffe paratrooper bandolier. Great unissued or barely used K98 paratrooper bandolier in the blue cloth. It would be perfect except for the head of one snap being missing (still works though!). No markings that I can find. Very nice example of a harder to get piece of fieldgear. $1100 $975


 

 

 

 

 

35.German Wehrmacht issue holsters. Couple of tougher to find holster, perfect to finish a combat mannequin.

a)Cz27 holster, unissued condition. Super nice pebbled leather exterior with RB number, code and 1944 markings on the back belt loop, but all hard to see because of the pebbling. $255

b)Radom P35 holster, well used, but in nice solid condition. Hard to read inside holster marking, but it is "P35p". Really nice, hard to find example. $175


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 36.German ww2 enlisted soldier's belt and k98 ammo pouch, as it was brought back by a US GI. Nice example with just normal light use, just as it came back from WW2.

Superb start for a combat equipment set. $175

Back is marked "gxy 1945" and also "P38". (gxy is Gebr. Klinge, Dresden-Löbtau) If you are making a late war mannequin or have a late 1944-45 pistol, this is the example you've been looking for. Scarce. $265


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

38.German army tropical belt with army buckle. Nice late war RB numbered example, near mint condition. Belt is size marked, RB numbered on leather tongue and also stamped 1940 with maker, but I believe those stamps are either postwar applied or the tongue is an earlier piece that was re-used on this later wartime belt. Buckle is in excellent condition with brown leather tab, marked "H.Aurich, Dresden, 1942". Nice example. $350


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

39.Luftwaffe tropical web belt. Interesting tan example with light brown tongue that has been period dyed blue (I think). The buckle clasp is painted a light green. Belt is 36 1/2" long and in excellent condition. Nice example. $360 SALE $299

 45.German ww2 blc 6x30 binoculars in bakelite case. Nice example to complete a mannequin. The bakelite container is marked inside. Someone has carved a swastica in the top, probably the vet who brought them back., but it is very neatly done. Leather strap is intact, but not the belt loops on the back. Binoculars themselves are average. Wear here and there, but nicely marked. They have the leather strap, but also a 1936 Leitz Wetzlar dust cover that is waffenampt marked. Overall nice set. $299


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 46.German ww2 scarce 1940 saddle bag. This example was for the right side of the rear of the saddle and was the "battle bag". It could be worn on the back as an assault pack. It held food, sweather, k98 cleaning kit, zelt rope, washcloth, soap, razor and has 3 sections for k98 ammo, built in. The saddle bag is in nice, used condition with soft leather. The only dectraction is someone has removed the top straps. An extra piece has been included with it, to be able to use it on the saddle. Very scarce, I have only ever seen 2 of this type. Leather is maker marked and dated 1941. For details see "Uniforms and Traditions of the German Army", vol3, pgs 235/236. $599

49.German ww2 Kriegsmarine deck mount binoculars, U.D.F 7x50 manufactured by blc (Carl Zeiss). Outstanding example, this type was used on U-boats and other vessels, I think. Hans Seeger's book describes them as "watertight U-boat sight for firing torpedos when on the surface." They are made of heavy (I mean HEAVY) brass construction and the rubber eyecups are in perfect condition. Lenses are clear and not foggy. Knurled knob on right adjusts the 2 lenses bringing them closer together or farther apart. There is a single line vertical for a gratical. I don't see anything luminous when I move the "hell/dunkel" knob. Everything works well on these and they are very tough to find. The paint is really nice on the and is the original factory battleship gray of the Kriegsmarine. Outstanding piece that I am selling from my collection. $7500 SALE $6500 HOLD
