    Looks like Collectors Guild Sold the Cover to Shovel awhile back and has a similar shovel on their site:

    I see nothing from these photos that jumps out as a fake (caveat - I defer on the paper item).

    In my opinion only, the item that stands out as the jewel for me is the shovel with carrier. Not sure on the rarity of the zelt or pack.

    My one question is "Where are you going to put this?" Have you been allocated more space in the house or extended into the garage? Wait, you did have some free floor space in the middle of the room. Perfect for a HJ mannequin.
    "Please", Thank You" and proper manners appreciated

    My greatest fear is that one day I will die and my wife will sell my guns for what I told her I paid for them

    Zelt is harder to find, Wool Side cap with RZM, Breadbag and Ruck/Tornister are not rare but not always easy to find. Shovel with leather carrier is hard to locate. Smaller Map Case is not rare but faintly marked

    Yeah. I thought the Zelt would be a key item but wasn't sure.

    Still, I love the shovel. Good condition or any condition carriers are a major plus

    Thanks for the Opinions. Hoping some other DJ & HJ guys will chime in as well. I have also been looking for a wool black side cap with RZM tag so that is a want item for me as well. Rossi/

    I would have thought that if the cap is HJ, it would state this on the RZM label.

    Hey Ralph,

    I could be mistaken but believe this to be an early DJ cap before RZM made specific nomenclature tags stating specific HJ. I believe the Early HJ wore visors. Well that is at least my opinion which is not always 100% accurate. I was trying to find a thread from Wim or somewhere on here today but ran out of gas.

    Hey Ralph, I was able to dig into an old thread from FB and the gang from way back. The tag is shown in this image from the thread and looks like it was for the earlier RZM like the one in the black wool DJ side cap I posted unless I am mistaken.
