Luftwaffe fur lined Flying Boots - Click for the bigger picture SoldLuftwaffe fur lined Flying Boots - This pair came in with the Luftwaffe suit we have recently listed and are post war examples in good original condition. They feature black grained leather uppers, cleated rubber soles with zip and strap fastenings. We cannot decipher the actual size, but they would appear to align to a UK size 9 (Continental 43). A durable and useable pair of boots at a modest price.

Luftwaffe Officer's Belt - Click for the bigger picture SoldLuftwaffe Officer's Belt - A fine original example in tan leather, complete with double pronged pebbled finish buckle. Minor staining to the leather and like many examples we see, the retaining loop for the belt end is absent, but this does not detract and it is perfect for a mannequin display or for re-enactment. It does not have any manufacturer's marks or date stamp and is a good size measuring 46" (117 cm)

Luftwaffe Parachute Quick Release Buckle - Click for the bigger picture SoldLuftwaffe Parachute Quick Release Buckle - A fine example of the war time pattern as used on WWII seat and chest parachutes. It is clearly stamped to the front as shown in the pictures and the back is stamped SA Scholss and manufactured by DR.Gettwart Berlin. Also stamped is FL 30232. What makes this example unusual is the parachute webbing attachment clips are still present and each is stamped FL.30232-1. Unlike many we see, this is not in relic condition and is in full working order. It would make a fine addition to a Luftwaffe collection or to assist in rebuilding a complete parachute assembly.

RAF B type Helmet - Click for the bigger picture SoldRAF B type Helmet - This example is dated 1938 and made by Frank Bryan. Marked size 2 but fits more like a 4. The helmet has been field modified and is fitted with Gosport tubes in good working order. Now looking for a Tiger Moth to plug it into!

1936 Pattern Flying Boots - Click for the bigger picture Sold1936 Pattern Flying Boots - This pair is RNZAF issue and are based upon the standard RAF 1936 pattern. They feature a black chrome leather upper with fleece lining and a leather tightening strap and buckle across the "V" shaped front opening. This variant does not have the internal leather pulls associated with the RAF boot. The top of the left leg is embossed NZ40 3246. This appears to be the RNZAF issue number, although it could be the owner's service number. The boots show some service use with mothing to the internal fur and they have been resoled at some stage. We cannot see a size marked, but they appear to be about a UK 8, Continental 42, US 8 1/2.

These kits are becoming increasingly rare and this is the first we have had with a selection of potions and lotions. Sold as a collector's item only and a great relic from the war on the Home Front. 30 cm x 19 cm x 20 cm (11.5" x 7.5" x 8")

WWII 'B' Type Flying Helmet - Click for the bigger picture SoldWWII 'B' Type Flying Helmet - An original 'B' type helmet of an unusual specification. A near identical example is shown on page 230 of Mick Prodger's book of vintage Flying Helmets and is listed as South African Airforce. It is constructed of pigskin with receiver cups fitted and zips in working order. On the downside, the rear adjustment strap has been removed and the leather shell is showing heavy wear. The interior has doughnuts fitted and is clean. Snaps for a 'D' type oxygen mask are fitted. The helmet is not wired, but we have added receivers foams for display purposes. Not the best example, but a rare helmet to add to your 'B' type collection.

Includes such useful information as Arrest and Custody Procedures, Digging Latrines and Forced Landings on the Sea! Lavishing illustrated with fold out diagrams, this must have been an invaluable and informative book when issued in WWII and still makes fascinating reading nearly 70 years later! 17 cm x 11 cm (6.5" x 4").

It covers an absolute wealth of information, including Arrest and Custody Procedures, Digging Latrines and Forced Landings on the Sea! It also includes a wealth of fold out diagrams and pictures and it must have been an invaluable reference to RAF personnel in WWII, but also makes very interesting reading nearly 70 years later. Minor service wear to the cover, but overall in very good condition.

RAF WWII Dinghy Survival Balloon M-278-A - Click for the bigger picture SoldRAF WWII Dinghy Survival Balloon M-278-A - In original sealed issue tin. This balloon was designed to loft the aerial wire of the SCR-578 radio transmitter (Gibson Girl) and had the advantage over the aerial kite as it could be operated in still weather conditions. The outside of the tin carries full operating instructions and illustrations as to how it should be inflated via a hydrogen generator. We can't guarantee the condition of the balloon, although the tin is sealed and has never been used. An invaluable piece of kit for airmen downed over water.

A-2 Flying Jacket - Click for the bigger picture SoldA-2 Flying Jacket - Manufactured by the Cooper Defense Contract Division for the USAF. Coopers obtained a contract in 1988 to supply a total of 53, 000 units and we understand this most famous WWII pattern also served with distinction during the first Gulf War. This example has been my personal jacket and was purchased new in 1992. It is in excellent condition and is only for sale as it is now a fraction small! It is sized at 42R (107 cm). No faults and a very wearable A-2, at a time when wartime examples are just too valuable to use on a regular basis.
