Hello. This was my first gas mask i have ever bought. I think its a really nice one, especially the mask who is like new. The cannister is painted in colour that il blue-grey so ill guess luftwaffe. Has the cleaning cloth and the spring.
The only thing that im not satisfied with is that the cannister is 1941, the date inside is 1942 and the mask is 1943.
I can make more pics if needed. Cheers
Looks like a really nice set you've aquired,never knew they produced GM30's that late in the war.as you said the mask is like new,congrats on your find...........Jake.
Im glad that my first one is really nice and signed. Shame that the straps arent in better condition, but i cant complain. Im going to post more pics of the mask in a minute.
Cheers
Here, more pictures. You just have to love that every part and strap of the mask is marked. Looks like the cannister has a fingerprint on it? Enjoy the pics cheers
Today when i was looking at the cannister on the sun i noticed that there is a same surname under the paint where the white surname writen is. That means that he had the cannister before he repainted it.
It holds the cleaning cloth in place in the bottom of the tin. Here is one from my collection to illustrate.
Cheers, Ade
