Stunning set, Walter !
Another smooth pattern for John to admire. Love the history

[Willi Z.]

Wow Walter! That is indeed a stunning set! And, with some history to the set as well.

Could you please post a close-up of the shoulder straps? Are they HBT?

Any date or markings on the inside?

Thank you for sharing Walther....It really is a stunning set and it does not get much better than this. Very beautiful and rare jacket with super shoulder boards!(A closeup of the boards would be nice) I also like the helmet very much!

I always enjoy seeing nice FD items like yours!

[John Hodgin]

A superb jacket indeed Walter, and with history and super rare shoulder straps! Very happy for your fine addition.

And yes, Bill Bell is a stand up guy. He brought the finest Japanese carbine I've ever seen to the Raleigh show; totally mint, 100% deep blue, with folding bayonet. Looked made yesterday although it was a late 30s weapon.

Regards,
John

Thank you very much to everyone for the very nice comments, I really appreciate them! As per the request, below are close-ups of the camo HBT shoulder straps. This first picture is with flash, the second picture is of the other side, without flash. No dates or markings were visible.

Lastly, please let me know if you want me to delete these close-ups (to avoid helping the fakers).

SOS find

Although I could not attend the show this year this interesting photo was brought to me from Louisville. Thanks to the good friend who sent it to me!

Any observations?

[Daniele Tirelli]

Uhmmm.... First thing I note is that, sadly, NO women around...

Seriously, maybe about the camo shoulderstraps in use?
