the jacket is not Russian , its from Yugoslavia , these were custom made for a movie about Tito , they were worn in the movie by the German forces , i have a version cut like the Paratrooper smock , i have seen reversible jackets and 2 piece sets as well , mine came with real bad Fally insignia made from blue felt and white tape, i will try to find the name of the movie as you can download it on the internet , it was made in the 60's if i remember correctly .

here's a couple pics of mine.

the movie is called Desant na Drvar (1963)

You can watch it here http://www.watch0nline.info/video-2147.html

about 56 min in you get a good look at the camo.

thanks

wow thanks panzerwerk ,thats very interesting ,can you tell me a value as i may sell,thanks will

[panzerwerk]

Depends , if you sell it as Russian , i have seen them sell for $500 , but if you sell it as Yugo without mentioning the movie , they bring $100-$150 , i have never seen one for sale as a movie prop , so i dont know what it would go for as what it is .
These have been coming out of Serbia for a couple years now , always as WWII pieces , so most buy them thinking they are getting a rare piece , although they are rare , they are not Military.
Hope this helps .
