    There were problems with the colors of all of the brown shirts, not only the 39 pattern. The RZM instructions listed the mixture of dyes and salts but no two dye lots ever came out exactly the same. After laundering, the shirts would fade to slightly different degrees, and today, with age and storage differences, it's rare to find 2 shirts that are exactly the same color. It's the case today as well--if you're buying paint for a room or fabric for tailoring/dressmaking, it's always recommended to buy all of your materials from the same dye lot as otherwise the lots won't match exactly.

      Also Erich, I saw this Brownshirt on Mr. Clark's site, I guess the 1939 shirt also came with the cloth belt as well as the collar lining? How rare are the cloth belts nowadays?

        The cloth belts are extremely rare IMO. I believe this is the same ensemble I picked up for a dealer friend at a MAX or SOS show maybe 12 years ago. It was the only complete set including the belt that I had ever seen. If I remember correctly, the collar liner had the metal RZM Muster seal attached.
