M17 Ledermaske named to Rottig
The feldgrau can is in nice condition with signs of wear such as chipping etc blending in with the overall patina. Named to soldier Rottig 3 times; once on the lid, once on the can strap marked faintly on a label, and lastly on the mask itself also on label. Inside the can lid still sits a set of spare lenses with instruction for use.
The ledermaske in the can has been there for 2 years since I purchased it and I’m hesitant to remove it as it is a bit of a time capsule piece in its current state. So for the purpose of this shoot I’ve photographed it with another example that I also have in my Imperial Collection. This particular mask is in great overall condition and retains all parts including the chord. Pictured along with the items is a feldgrau buckle which looks to be unissued or to have had little use.
This one has been posted before but not properly.
