Mint early gas mask can in rare applegreen colour

[hagen.191]

Hi. What do you think? Applegreen painted cans dont come up very often. Maker seems to be rare too. Name tag says "Gefreiter Schultze".

WOW ! that really is one killer of a gasmask !
I love the matte finish of the paint and the naming of course.
And you are right about the maker , Hagen !

In my collection of gasmask maker´s marks this one is new.
Never seen this maker before !

Please can you make a better clearer picture of the maker ?
Thanks a lot !

On top of the can you can see a "3" under the dust. The same number is stamped on one of the masks straps. The maker of the can says "1937". The 37er filter seems to be fresh out of the factory. The mask is worn and stamped with "1938". The stamp on the short carrier strap of the can cant be identified. The cleaning cloth seems to have some blood residuals on it.
