I got this today in the mail and at first glance it resembled a German one I have. It appears to be of the same design and construction . It also has an extra lens in wax paper but I think it is in Italian language instead of German.The date on the lens is M 31-33. The date on the gas mask itself is 1935 with a star above it as shown in the pictures. The filter has a paper label w/ what appears to from 1956, possibly a later inspection date if it was still in use, or maybe this is a newer filter not original to the mask. I thinks this may be a pre ww2 Italian military issue mask made in Germany for the Italian Army. Any info will be appreciated,thanks.
