Dutch pre-war Military Clothes Beater (Kledingklopper). It was used to whisk dust from woolen uniforms. The beater is not visible maker marked or dated, it's complete with leather strings. Named to a Dutch soldier called 'Wieland'. Nice original period item in good used condition!

This item originates from the collection of the recently closed Eyewitness Museum and was in display in the diorama in the last picture!
