      This is exactly what I needed : a display case where I can put the medals and other small items.

              Hello,
              Just wanted to show an item that was visible on the bottom of the previous photo : a storage box for the Feldbinde and Achselband. The box is made of Ersatzleder and the inside is covered with artificial silk. As one could expect, the press-stud is of course … ‘Prym’.
              I still wonder what the vertical leather piece, sewn in the center of the lid, was intended for ? Any ideas ?

              Even if such items are not quite rare, I personally like the fact that it (including the medal bar) belonged to the same officer.

                      Again, Mark, some very nice items Thanks for sharing them.


                      Now, about the wavy stitching under the collar of the dot pattern ss jacket. I have the same style of stitchings on a 3th model heer issue combat tunic. What are you thoughts on this, instead of the typical zig-zag stitching?

                      Was it more common to find this feature on ss tunics? Or just a maker-variant?

                      I honestly haven't seen this on to many tunics, besides mine, yours and one I inspected on a show a few years back ( a messed up heer hbt tunic)

                      Thanks in advance

                        Thank you Junior, Chris and Jan for your replies.

                        Sorry Jan for my delayed reply. In fact, your questions/comments already contained the answers. Yes, some late-war tunics have the simplified wavy stitching instead of the familiar zig-zag. Yes, this variation seems to be more frequent on SS tunics but I have also seen that feature on Heer ones (and HBT ones, like yours). This week, at the Beltring show I again saw that wavy stitching on a (one of the very few originals I saw there) M43 SS tunic. We have to keep in mind that the stitching underside the collar was only to keep the collar stiffener in place : so, any stitching way would do (not only zig-zag or wave, but also horizontal stitching). I don’t think it was a maker’s variation but rather an allowed simplification, in order to speed up production at that stage of the war.

                        Note also that this kind of wavy stitching is frequently encountered on privately tailored tunics.

                        Anyway, concerning your HBT tunic, I see nothing wrong with it.

                        To illustrate one of the late-war variations, below is an example of simplified zig-zag stitching on a Sturmgeschütz Jacke collar (the stitching has been computer highlighted in white).

                        Regards,
                        Mark
