Hello, I was hoping to track down visual examples of SS issued blankets, I am having quite a lot of trouble as there are a great many fantasy versions floating around on the internet. Any links or pictures would be a great help and maybe examples of ink stampings. If anyone could find a second to help I would be eternally grateful.

The vast majority of blankets used by the Wehrmacht and Waffen-SS likely had no ink stampings. -

Snyder's Treasures usually has these items along with SS Whips and SS Tongs etc. Call Old Charlie, he will find you an SS Blanket.Comment

I have never seen an SS marked blanket but who knows, they may have just had a small RZM label. Here is a link to a modern reproduction they say is based on originals.
