"Zünderbüchse 2L” 8,8 cm FlaK Artillery Fuse Container - Cylindrical, Black Bakelite Type (1942) - WWII

Curious “Zünderbüchse 2L” artillery fuse container, of Nazi manufacture, dating back to WWII. Produced in black bakelite, the case, designed to house the explosive devices of the legendary 8,8 cm FlaK anti-aircraft and anti-tank gun's ammunition, in all probability the most famous cannon of the whole conflict, shows a cylindrical shape, with an increased diameter bottom, and is provided with screw cap. In excellent general conditions, the item reveals several historic markings, both on cylinder top and the two sides of the cap: among them, besides «2L» - an indication of the container type -, «1942» - a reference to the production year - and «jou» - 3-letter secret code (the so called “WaffenAmt code”) indicating the manufacturing plant, mystery, alas, still to decipher. True relic of the “waged war”, the piece results particularly attractive for all collectors of Mid-War Wehrmacht militaria.
