CCKW Canvas Doors

Post by Captain Crank »

I have seen at least two styles of doors with two different size of plastic window.

One has both panes of equal size while the other has the smaller size pane at the rear.

Are both correct or is one an Allied countries version, maybe post war?

Thanks

Original WW2 photographs I have seen showed both types of doors. I have doors with both panes of equal size. I bought them from Austria. There are markings stamped on one of these doors but I could not find out the date and origin. I have also seen doors with only one large pane. These are definitely post war items.
