    SS zeltbahn-what pattern?

    I was wondering if anyone can tell me what pattern Waffen-SS zeltbahn this is? Early, mid, or late war? I know the condition is fairly sad due to mice making a home of this fine german material, but at least I do not have to spend the amount that a really good one costs (I am getting it in a trade).
    Thanks in advance!

    Dismiss the items on top of the zeltbahn in the next few photos. These are all I have for close-ups at the moment.

    Poor German tunics =(

        Not sure about your zeltban, but I think your Estonian shield is a fake.

          OAKLEAF 'A' I think but it could be 'B' sorry to be vague I have no reference books with me at this time.

                    The reason I thought the left one was a fake because it is very wide and has very short border (unlike the Dahau type, which has more border but slimer body). If your shield is OK thats great, but I saw a similar fake. They are made to pass as Dahau types, but are obviously not.

                      there are (as far as i know) 4 different estonian shield types that were made in dachau - overall look is similar but these have some small difference (like thinner border, wider flag colours, other shade of blue) - i will add a link to a picture of some of my shields
