    Im curious what's going on with the browning(?) on all the tunics. Is this some uniform-type of damage from them all being stored together?

          Oooh, I'd first scrub these tunics with mild soap and a hard brush, then put some bleach on the spots, cullit bang, maybe some fine sand paper and then take them to the dry cleaners, ..
          The labels might suffer a bit though ..

                I saw the white Hitler tunic in 2000 at the Army Museum in Moscow. For an extra fee, we were taken downstairs and shown this tunic and some Goering uniforms that were in a closet. I imagine they're still there?

                    Hi Chris,

                    Unfortunately I did not. I had a video camera and the other three guys had still cameras but we weren't allowed to take pictures. The whole thing was treated as though we were seeing some Russian top secrets. I'm not sure how our tour guide managed to get this visit arranged but it certainly wasn't part of the regular ticket price.

                      Thanks so much everyone for your comments and images. Where else could we have so much info in one place? Maybe this is off topic but I have been hearing for years that Clint Eastwood is a TR collector and has some very impressive items, one is a tunic worn by Goering........
