Heer (Army) Tropical Pith Helmet
SOLD!Have one to sell, or looking to buy one of these? Click here and let us know. We're always looking to buy, and may have more in stock.This WW2 Tropical Pith Helmet is not the nicest example I’ve seen, but it is complete, original, and in better shape than many on the market today. The only notable flaws are the heavily worn leather chinstrap, normal wear to the leather trim around the rim of the helmet except for a small 2-3” chunk missing, and some minor discoloration in areas. The sweatband on the inside is in tact, but has a small section that has either been burned, or saturated with a substance that caused the leather to harden.

Iron Cross Second Class – Klein & Quenzer (65)
SOLD!Have one to sell, or looking to buy one of these? Click here and let us know. We're always looking to buy, and may have more in stock.Iron Cross Second Class EKII, 1939 (Eisernes Kreuz II Klasse) with “65” stamped into the ring, which signifies the maker, “Klein & Quenzer”. This Iron Cross may look a little rough, but a cross like this tells a story all its own. As any collector knows, to clean or restore a piece such as this one would destroy its history and value. Aside from some modest petina, and very slight surface color, the overall black finish is still about 95% on both sides, with the trademark “veins” running through random sections. A very nice cross indeed!
