Very nice Tom!
You must be so happy to finally put this set up together. I've only ever seen them in photos, never in hand.
Congratulations!
Ralph.

Hello,
Wow...great stuff here....congrats Tom, they're very nice.
Those green Y-straps with their unique construction are seldom seen and very desirable
Nice set up...
Thanks for sharing
Thanks

Hello,
I do not understand why such an item does not make people react more....guys, these are really rare...

Tom : there is a known photo of members of the Aufklärungs Abteilung from the Grossdeutschland on the Ostfront during the summer of 1942, one of the guy is wearing these, easily noticeable due to the construction....

Congrats again, i know only two other pairs, one belongs to Mark who is a member here, the other, to a good friend of mine in Paris.
Thanks

For anyone interested, a similar pair for sale on WAF.

Hello Ralph,
They're similar, yes, but they're not of the first type adopted, like the pair posted by Tom...
These have a unique construction that was quite quickly discontinued to produce the type for sale on the other forum...
The ones in the link are not yellow but they're constructed the same way than yellow Y-straps.
Thanks

Great to see, and very well photographed as well.

Thanks

I don’t know either why not more people are exited... i know i am...

Anyway, i noticed i forgot to “complete” the setup with a tan gasmask can

I may not be the nicest tan one out here, but at least it’s original

Enjoy



Tom
