There are two pictures of my last find:

I suppose it was sometimes a gas mask. The metal part of my mask is similar to the metal part of standard german gas mask, but it is placed inverted (up to down) to the rubber part of the mask.
On the metal part there is marking of Aluminiumwerke Nürnberg GmbH (bmw) and number 43, which I suppose indicate year of production 1943, and four pointed star under the number.
On rubber part of the mask, there are two groups of markings:
lxg 44 (maybe also lxq because the third letter of three-place code in not clearly seen) and B / 44 / 208 lxq (these markings are in three rows, each row I indicate with / ). The three placed codes again indicate the producer, but I don't managed yet to found out which one
and the number 44 indicates year of production.
I would be grateful for any views of the mask. Any information about it would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance, Sebastijan
