my collection of german mess - kits

[daco]

I am mainly a war badge collector, but I really enjoy this collection of mess kits! The BSW41 is very interesting to me in that this company Bruder Schneider Wein is also one of the more common producers of war badges, and many are marked with the BSW in cloverleaf mark.
Cheers,
Brian

thanks for this information I didn't know

great late model mess kits

your AEMA 44 must have the same RBNr as mines, and it still have a lot of its green painting outside

Enamelled mess -kits with paint are very rare, I met such only two onces

Enamelled mess -kits with paint are very rare, I met such only two onces

with the last one that arrived 2 days ago, I have 3 of them

I will present the last one as soon as possible after a small cleaning (dust),

I hope the marks are different but all the one I saw until today are always with the same RBNr and AEMA44 marks

[daco]

hera are the pictures of my last found : a black enameled with RBNr





it is hard to take a picture of the marks and also hard to read it






I guess more than I can really read but it seems to be another 0/857/0001

[daco]

I found it !

since now I had no mess kit dated 1945
now this error is corrected

this is a MN45




I am happy

Ciao Daco,nice45...superb collection
I always looking for a RBNr....but it's not easy to find

[daco]

here I am back after several months abroad

and 2 new mess kit : one from 44 and the other from 45

first, this one from 1944 with RBNr 0/0571/0116 made of steel but no paint or enamel. Seems to be covered with pewter as protection against rust





I already had her sister from the same factory, same marks, no paint but aluminium made




the other one, MN45 , no paint, made of aluminium but the main point is the lack of handle on the cover




now I have got 31 mess kits

best regards

WOW Daco, nice example are there, congrats, I'm always looking for an RBNr...

I am very interested when you say that "made of steel but no paint or enamel"

I have a big discussion in another forum about this debate......now, my question for you and other is: the red inside paint of messkit and canteens cup, what is? I think that is or rust or red paint for food or red lacquer, other friends say that red is enameled finish.... what do you think?

for me the red paint inside steel made mess kit is lacquer

Thanks for bumping this up. I had not seen this thread before. Very interesting collection.

What is the price range on these pieces? Just curious.

[daco]

Also I, but can you demonstrate it?

well, I don't know how to demonstrate it but I know it as a process of production, that's all
