Hi all,

here is my last purchase, the badge is unmarked but I’ve checked on the classification showed by Norm (great work by the way!) and it appears to me that it’s a "Type 3 (RK type) AS in triangle" (3.2.1). Any comments are welcome.

regards,

Pierre

Hi everyone, just put this display together showing British anti-gas equipment used by civilians 1939-45.

Clockwise from left, a 1939 dated babies anti gas suit, an ARP gas rattle, a gasmask for a small child, civilian duty gasmask (used by ARP wardens, rescue workers etc), Service type respirator (issued to firemen, police and others) civilian gasmask issued to asthmatics, with bag, boxed respirator issued to most adults and older children.

I think its incredible to consider the logistics and cost of making sure every person in Britain was protected. This involved the rapid manufacture and mass issue of millions of masks in the period 1938-39, together with public information and training programmes. By the outbreak of war, virtually everyone had a mask and knew how to use it. The government did an incredible job.

Any comments welcome.

Hi everyone,

I have just been offered this nice M42 by a well respected dealer after I’d just missed out on purchasing a similar M42 on the weekend. It looks good to me but I’d still love some opinions. Just curious if the liner may have been replaced at some stage due to the darker paint on them. Also, do you think the liner condition matches the helmet. Looks used but but not quite in keeping with the rest of the helmet. Not sure of the size or maker marks etc so will ask for these.

Thank you,
Andrew

Hi,

Wanted to show my Carl Wild collection with the 3 different variants I have found so far. Not sure how many there are, maybe its complete

The first variant is the most common and the others are not so easy to find.
