1960's Czech Uniforms and Gear

[Pauly]

Hello All, I just recently purchased a VZ58 dummy gun and parts kit and and have got the bug to set up a mannequin with a complete set of gear. I have been searching around the internet and have been having trouble finding some of the basic items, like y-straps for example. Also being into East German Paratroopers I would like to get a complete set of gear for a Czech Paratrooper. I have found little info and no gear, as of yet.

If any of you could push me in the right direction where I could get some gear and provide a little insight on Czech uniforms in the 60's and 70's. I would be most appreciative.

Thanks, Paul

How rare is the camo pictured and what would be the going rate for one of the tunics?
