I got it from a chap in Essex complete with pick shuvel axe and horse drawn rig. Its dated around the 1930s hopfully? and was used in WW2 by the Germans? its in great condition all the leather straps are a1 and look origanal. I just thought it would look great with my camping kit on it, hooked up to my VW181.

It is Swiss, not the same as the German one at all. Usefull in airsofting for shifting kit I guess but well known to re-enactors as a bit farby.

I think it looks pretty damned good myself, much better than using a modern trailer (which is much more "farby" and some reenactors need to get a life). God knows where you put all of this stuff Dave, you must have a very understanding missus!




When I want your opinion - I'll tell you what it is!

I have a few blocks in stock, no No97 though. got it in the post war tin, just not in the puck. I do have RAF Blue/grey and No.103 and two experimental shades.
There was some for sale at Stoneleigh, I never asked the price.
