    Need price for this tunic/ hat/ belt

    Hi. This police tunic was (according to the vet's brother from whence it came) captured in nothern Italy. The late war tunic cap belt and buckle all came together. A guy who got it from the vet's brother added the EK ribbon and belt hooks but otherwise this is how it came back. The cap is dated 1944 I think (a little faint).
    The tunic has some blood staining along the fringe (see pic) and there are a coulple of "wear" spots I assume (see pic) but no moth holes that I could see. My camera batteries went bad before I could take pictures of the inside. I think this a medium size as it fits easily on a styrofome manequin.

    As I said the belt and late war buckle came back with it (I'm tempted to keep the buckle as it is cool but I hate to break up a set. Anyway would anyone have a good suggestion what to ask for this set on E-stand. I'd like to keep it but I kind of want an infantry combat tunic if I can ever find one.

    You can PM me if you can think of a good price to ask for this. Also general discussion in regards to condition or unit posibilities etc. are welcome.

    Thanks Dennis

                  Dennis,

                  It appears that the folding flap has been removed from the cap. That is too bad but does explain the liner stitching on the inside. The tunic itself looks like a standard late war tunic with square cut pocket flaps and a late general service eagle. The buckle is also late war and should be an unmarked molded buckle with injection mold marks on the back. Any markings on the belt or leather tab by chance?

                    I can't make out the markings but I'll post pictures of the inside.

                      thats a nice group
                      what were you hoping to get ? 650-850 or over a thousand?
                      the caps not really going to fetch too much because its been changed, the belt and buckel look to be in good nick, and the tunic looks to have typical usage marks, stains, mothing, etc shouldent have to much problem selling as one lot
                      i have been after a tunic for a little while

                      my two cents( i am not a expert)
                      dread

                        A few more pictures of the police tunic. There are a smudge of markings but they are not readable. In the sleaves however there are markings "79"
                        Are these unit markings? or maker designations?
