Original Items: Only One Lot Available. This is a varied “as-is” assortment of seven original German bayonet frogs dating from the pre-WWII and WWII period. The group includes leather and ersatz-material examples in several configurations, with four retaining visible maker and date markings. Condition ranges from good to heavily worn, with several examples showing broken frog-stud openings, severe stiffness, crazing, lost stitching, and other age-related deterioration.

The lot includes:
- Wide white-painted frog marked on the back A. FISCHER / BERLIN C.2 / 1937. Heavy wear. Very stiff. Likely an ersatz material like pressed paper.
- Brown leather bayonet frog with frog button hole broken through and heavy wear overall. Marked on back TIWO / HEIDELBERG / 1941.
- Black leather bayonet frog with frog button hole broken through and heavy wear overall. Marked on back Otto Breitsch.. / Eisleben / 1942.
- Brown pressed paper ersatz bayonet frog, frog button hole broken through and heavy wear overall. Marked on back A. FISCHER / BERLIN C.2 / 1937.
- Black leather frog with very long belt loop, good shape but no markings.
- Very stiff black leather frog, heavy crazing.
- Reinforced black leather frog with heavy wear and some discoloration. Loss of stitching as well. Not marked.

German bayonet frogs of the 1930s and WWII period were produced in a surprisingly wide range of materials and constructions. Standard leather remained the principal material, but substitute designs also appeared in treated composite fabric, laminated paper, rubberized material, plastics, and webbing. These variations reflected both specialized requirements and changing material availability before and during the war.

This group is particularly useful as a comparative study lot, with seven different examples illustrating changes in material, construction, finish, and wartime wear. The two A. Fischer / Berlin C.2 / 1937 frogs, TIWO / Heidelberg / 1941 example, and 1942 Eisleben-marked frog provide identifiable maker and date information, while the unmarked examples demonstrate additional variations encountered in surviving German bayonet equipment. Offered exactly as found, the lot is well suited for further research, restoration reference, or display alongside German WWII bayonets and field equipment.
