A thread to the Pz. Grenadier collectors

Chet,
That is a smoking tunic man! Thanks for posting pics of it, she us a stumner. Are the awards original to it? Matt

[Chet Sowersby]

Matt,
No the awards are not to the tunic, just "add ons" by me. Indeed, it is a nice example IMO. I've always liked it because of the taylors lable. As an WWII avaiation buff the city in which the taylors shop was located was also the birthplace of the Bf109. The Allies bombed the living daylights out of the city because of of the aircraft factory located there.

I see on the last photo that the infantry assault badge is sewn to the tunic. The photo just become even better!

Great thread.

Havn't done an update for a while on this thread... well just a few boards and caps have come in and a tunic or two. There are a couple more enroute but will have to wait till the spring to get a nice update. Matt

[afrikasandman]

a nice variety of colors of the visor crew.

[afrikasandman]

The most recent visor, I still think it could go either way Pz gren or jager but still a very nice cap.

[afrikasandman]

The guys all chillin on the shelves and what not. That ACU cap is mine and I had to retire it to the collection after it was super faded and the cloth split up the center of the bill after 5 years of use and some harsh sun :/ Matt

[afrikasandman]

The overcoat was stripped of its boards before I ever got it so had a set of LT pz gren boards sewn in. Needs a Krim or Kuban shield sewn on as that was taken with the boards... thinking Krim but who knows. Hope you guys enjoy the little update but missing a few items that will be enroute. Matt

Heres a pic of my favorate Pz-gren Greatcoat nco trop boards. Perfect match on my great coat to the point I would never sell them separate from the great coat .

As well a pic of remnants of a little tuff of Pz-Gren soutach poking out under the seam of my M40 Trop-cap.
