Hello Troy,

Good detail shots on these items. I don't collect German equipment but have always been interested and these are some details that I've not seem before.

Also, I removed your deleted posts to make your entry a bit neater.

Regards

Brian

Hi Brian

I wasn't really in the market for the backpack, but the price was really good, and it is in great shape, especially for something that is 95 years old. I bought it from the same seller that sold me the above posted canteen, which I also got for a steal :)

Great pics,& thankyou for sharing them with us.

I have an old WW2 Horse Hair Tornister that I picked up in a French Flea Market for a few Francs.

Albeit, not a fine specimen as yours,mine came completely, War torn & Moth eaten...

Good to see what it looked like in its former glory!
