Hi all,
yesterday i got these two Fieldbeds. The guy i got it from is some 65 years old. He told me that his dad had them since the end of the war. He think that his dad brought them back from the war. He used it for camping when he was a child.
I inspected both carfully but was not able to locate a makers mark or something else. I can say they are unmarked, but the construction looks 100% ww2 german. The webbing is correct, the stitching is 100% cotton, the snaps looks ok but are unmarked.
Both beds have remains of a small paper label attached with thread to one snap. I can see also tailor marks (Lines) in blue stenceling around the webbing straps. May it be that the soldier got it somewere in a factory at the end of the war before thay marked and waA proofed them ?
I hope some of you can help me with identifiyng. Maybe one of you has seen a similiar bed in a book or period pictures.
Any help would be great.
Thanks Jens
