Finally after 4+ years of asking, my friend finally released this mail back, WW1 German gas mask.
The container has a great patina, but no rust, mask is soft & plyable & the lenes in mask as well as the extra ones in the top of the container are in great condition. The strap also rate high in condition.

 

From: Sgt Richie, Co. D, 313 Engineers

To: B.C. Richie, Georgetown, Illinois .

Enjoy, Paul

The first German item I acquired in about 1970 was an m-16 camouflage helmet with almost identical white mailing address tag.  Never have seen German WWI field gear with souvenir mailing address tag before. 
 

Nice pickup.
