Zelts, zelts, zelts

[François B.]

I managed to get my hands on these last weekend....
Three Zelts from the same adress, all different.... 1 German and 2 Italian....

From a farmer close in the neighbourhood, he had these for years...... But was never in the mood to give them away, untill last weekend....

Straight from the woodwork....
They came in handy for the guy in all those years, one Italian was used for inside paint-jobs.....

And the strange thing is, there were never Italian-troops here in this part of Holland....
So they were issued to German troops......

Here are some pics....

The German M31, maybe used for MG-practice...

Some other markings on the Zelt...

[François B.]

I am glad he didn't used this one for his paint-jobs....

[François B.]

Only one rip in the middle...

[François B.]

Is this an Italian stamp? Or German?
This is the only stamp on this one....

[François B.]

The other side.....
