German luftchutz gas mask

[The woodpecker]

I am going to buy this ww2 german luftschutz gas mask . I NEED YOUR OPINION. ORIGINAL OR FAKE?? the price is 30 euro

Looks good to me.....it's a civilian gas mask...would have originally been in a cardboard box.....they go for fairly cheap, I would have thought 30 euro would have got you a complete boxed one....offer 15!

This is a German civilian Volkgasmaske model 1940. Here is the example from my collection with its packaging and carrying bag. The example you show is certainly completely original, these don't get faked as they are too common. The filter is the correct type. The value is very low, and 30 euro is way too much. You can get a complete boxed one for less than that if you look around.

you have a point douglas but i cant shop out of my country . In Greece you cant find often something like that

[douglas2496]

In that case there is no problem. Good luck with your collection,
