€ 119,00
pre-war German military K98 ammunition pouch (Patronentasche) is a textbook, highly customized example manufactured in 1937. Constructed from high-quality chocolate brown pebbled leather, the reverse side of the pouch features a crisp, deep manufacturer stamping for Blume & Brenner, Müllrose Bez. Ffm. 1937. The historical significance of this pouch is exceptionally strong, showcasing a clear L.B.A.B. 37 depot acceptance mark (Luftwaffe Bekleidungsamt Berlin, 1937) inside the center pocket. Furthermore, the interior top flap retains a highly desirable blue military unit ink stamp reading L.d.L.N.S., identifying its issue to the elite Lehr-Division der Luftnachrichten-Schule.Adding to its personal combat history, the right compartment preserves an original pre-war period paper name label with a distinct diamond border, reading Kanonier Wäsch, indicating service within a Luftwaffe flak or artillery unit. The pouch remains in beautiful overall cosmetic condition with all internal dividers fully present and the leather remaining very supple. The only notable defect is a minor tear at the adjustment hole of the central closure strap; however, the strap remains fully intact with its original aluminum stud and the issue does not affect overall display value. An outstanding, fully authenticated Luftwaffe equipment piece with rare unit and named provenance, perfect for an advanced field gear collection.
