Hi
It's "late" 5/6 plane tree pattern.
K. -
It seems so, but first it is not late. The background is not Eichenlaub.
And i can´t find 5 or 6 on the plane and the black spots don´t match with the spots on fotos i have from 5/6 tents.Comment

Now i have found a match on the rigth side. Same overprint on an early 6 plantree on the rigth side. The red Trapez shows were normaly the number 6 has to be.
The left side of the plane is the same print upside down. No printed cut-borders like often seen on other planetree-tents.
Both sides, autum and spring has on both sides, left and right only one kind of pattern.Comment

Hi
When I say "late" I mean one of the late evolution of the 5/6 pattern before the oafleaf/plane tree overprint. Not the latest.
The 5/6 plane tree is one of the pattern wich have the most significative evolution during the war. This small spotted appearance is characteristic of the evolution of this pattern.
Nice zelt indeed.

It is a special variant of the 5/6 pattern. It doesn't have numbers.
This pattern will be covered in Mark Steacy's and Werner Palinckx's book on german zeltbahnen.
These zelts aren't mega rare but they are an interesting variation lacking numbers and cutting lines etc.. I have only seen this with the later 5/6 pattern.
