I’m thinning the collection, so here are some rare military collector items.
US M-1916 Holsters, from left to right:
1. 1917 dated Warren: great condition except for the leather by the brass belt hook is very worn. $50
2. Almost mint condition WW2 A.L.P (Atchinson Leather products) correct russet brown color. This holster looks to have never been issued, A.L.P is one of the scarce makers, having only made less than 10% as many holsters as larger manufacturers like Boyt. It came attached to an excellent condition pistol belt, I’ve seen these holsters go for $300 in this condition, I’ll list it for $150, or $175 with the pistol belt.
3. WW2 Enger in very good condition $sold
4. Another rare A.L.P in very good condition $100
5. Vintage officers or military police black leather Sam brown style belt with 1911 holster, US marked double magazine pouch, and another unknown but matching black leather pouch. $50 for the rig
Accessories:
6. WW2/WW1 canteen set with correct ww2 canteen pouch, 1943 Vollrath canteen, and a 1918 B.A.C.O canteen cup $sold
7. US M-1942 first aid pouches. $soldeach,
Headgear:
8. Ww2 M40 German helmet, ET64 size, the helmet is original, the liner is an older reproduction, and the paint and decals are old, but I doubt they are original. $225
9. Ww2 German gladiator style Luftschutz helmet. All original, well marked, these helmets were primarily used by anti-aircraft gunners $175
10. US m-1943 field jacket hood $10
11. US cold weather insulated helmet liner, this looks unissued, probably Korean War. $15
12. US (Vietnam war?) OD green, hat, jungle, with insect net. This is in new/unissued condition. $15
Other military collectibles:
13. WW2 .30m1 ammo can, with correct flaming bomb markings. This can came out of an estate with 3’x5’ US 48-star flag folded inside of it! Insanely cool to have it come with this rare flag in it, it surely has some insane history! The can and flag have tons of character, one of my favorite pieces! $sold for the set, I don’t want to separate them, since they have been together since ww2.
14. 3 framed sets of 2 original German ww1 postcards! Awesome humorous/satirical scenes and graphics! These were framed a very long time ago! $25 for each framed set of 2 postcards.
Edged weapons:
15. Huge machete, I think it’s a 32” blade. Can’t read the markings on the blade, the matching leather sheath is well marked though, unsure of the date, but definitely looks to be WW2 vintage $60
16. US M-9 bayonets. These are the real deal, one is Lan-Cay, the other is a Phrobis III. Both come with correct sheaths, the Phrobis has the belt clip modified. $150 (spf) for the LanCay, $180 for the Phrobis
17. Very Rare British SAS Fairbairn Sykes commando knife, marked Sheffield, England. This has the brass SAS crest mounted on the guard, I believe it is a presentation knife from the SAS. $200
