Description
You are bidding on a FANTASTIC set of WW2 German Luftwaffe Wagener / Auer Model 295 Pilot Goggles (Schutzbrille)! These were used by many fighter and bomber pilots!
Made of aluminum and rubber, this is a VERY NICE set of Model 295 Flight Goggles! In used condition, they do show some slight marks and wear throughout…but are VERY solid otherwise! Lenses are clear and feature no major scratches or damage. The RARE black rubber face pad (usually these were white or grey) is EXCELLENT with no breaks…but there is some slight cracking over the bridge area (normal, due to the age) The metal frame retains 98% original paint & finish! The strap has lost most of its elasticity, but again, that is quite consistent with the age/wear. Stitching is a bit loose in some areas, but it does not affect the function. “O.W.” for O.W. Wagener & Co Rathenow is stamped into the frames in 3 places. One of the NICEST sets I have seen, it would make a PERFECT addition to any collection or display! Please email me if you need additional photos or information. |
