          rank clarification

          the rank, I believe should be Oberfuhrer...?
          the Arrow on the left arm appears oversized and s/b black arrow, not gray(?)

          any assistance will be appreciated...

            Nice tunic but I think an Oberführer should have an private purchase tunic and not an issued one .

                    This is an other ranks reworked tunic. It is not officer quality material. One does not often see belt ramps on officer tunics. The ty rune is a poor copy of the genuine article.

                      I agree with Bob. The collar tabs with metal devices were not often used after the early 30s and were no longer produced--leaders were supposed to upgrade to bullion tabs. The boards are the later type (post 39) so there is even less likelihood that a high leader would wear this combination. Add to that the fantasy Tyr rune and the fact that it's an 'enlisted' rough wool tunic--IMO this is a put together.

                        Much appreciate everyone's candid input. Enough info to warrant not going forward with the purchase...another reason to appreciate having such expertise on this forum..

                        Cheers everyone...
