WWII German M30 Gas Mask with S-Filter and M35 Canister, 1936 Dated

World War Two German M30 Gas Mask (Gasmaske) with S-Filter with M35 Gas Mask Canister (Gasmaskenbüchse). This gas mask and canister are in very good condition and the only notable wear present is slight finish loss on the canister as well as slight hardening of the rubberized canvas mask and some loss of the label on the S-Filter. There are also very small patches of rust scattered on the canister. There is a canvas carry strap on the canister that is still in very good condition and serviceable. The container in the lid of the canister contains two filters and two eyepieces to be applied to the gas mask. There are several markings on the container. One is a manufacturer’s marking that appears to be a “T” in a stylized trapezoidal box (Alfred Teves Maschinen-und Armaturenfabrik G.m.b.H., Frankfurt am Main) and it is dated 1936 next to it. There is also a boxed marking with a Weimar-style eagle and some writing that is difficult to make out. That is stamped over a faded and illegible roundel marking. The gas mask’s rubberized canvas has somewhat hardened but is still adjustable and serviceable. The S-Filter is marked “AB112KH40” which identifies Auergesellschaft Berlin as the manufacturer and also indicates other information. It is also marked “getr. 12. 11. 1936” indicating that the filter was applied to the mask on Nov. 12th, 1936. It also features a boxed Weimar-style eagle and writing that says “Waffenamt Abna. [Abnahmewesen] S6”. There is an added Roman numeral IV that is repeated on the bottom of the exterior of the canister. There is also a significant amount of writing on the label wrapping around the base of the s-filter.
