Product Details

Original Item: Only One Available. The German Zeltbahn or Army Tent Quarter was a multi-purpose piece of German army regulation equipment that was issued to Wehrmacht soldiers during WWII. This piece of camouflaged material could be combined with three other to make a proper tent, or other quantities to construct shelters of various sizes, it was also used for camouflage, as a poncho or even a stretcher. This service used example comes in the very attractive reversible German Army Splinter pattern, with about half of the original aluminum buttons still present.

The Zeltbahn 31 was developed in 1931 and found its origin in the square Reichswehr tent. It was made of a water repellent material called Makostoff and is imprinted with a camouflage pattern which is also known as Army Splinter Pattern (Heeres Splitter Muster 31), another phrase used was: Buntfarbenaufdruck (colourful print).

This example looks to possibly have seen use post war, as when the Bundeswehr was formed they began to re-use much of the same equipment that was still serviceable from WWII. It has had some stitch repairs made to holes, however no patch repairs as we sometimes see. There is wear to the print, and some of the button holes are torn, giving it a great "been there" look. It also has had all of the large grommets removed, and some of the buttons are missing as well.

We were actually able to find markings on this example on the edge, which as a rarity are still fully legible, and included a date! They read:

WEBER & OTT
Aktiengesellschaft
Forchheim (Oberfr.)
1941

A lovely service used example, complete with some attachment straps for German field equipment. Ready to add to your collection!

NOTE: Mannequin not included.
