Good day mates
Got a great bargain today at the flea market of a german gas mask and canister (with owner name painte inside). I got two issues bugging me :
1. being an early watime canister the latch bears the symbol of Ditmar yet the interior lid is marked MSM N 1940. Is it the same manufacturer ?
2. Also The bottom bears no D (Dicht) and is coated black (maybe later on coated) ? So has anyone encountered such a variation ? I mean there's no green paint under the black one on the bottom (visible in a place where there's a part of paint missing)
Gas mask is 1944 btw. Cheers!
