More torment. Someone somewhere in the world has one of these jackets and is sitting back and making us suffer. Best, Bill

Ofcourse there's a chance that 1 or more white jackets survived and maybe some are still hidden in the attic ...
Till now we've never seen one in real life.. unfortunately ..

The Zenker jacket is a faded blue one.., I'm now 100% convinced because I've found this photo of another grounddug jacket while re-organizing my PC .., I had it all the time, but I've so many pics that I simply didn't know that I had it.., found it back by coincidence .

It also has lost all of its blue color, except for some purple spots..
This one still has it's collar ...
Picture isn't mine, so I've cut it in pieces for several reasons, but it's the jacket that counts..

Hi Jos, it looks pretty convincing for the faded fabric theory. Someone with the expertice needs to examine this in hand. Find the buttons. Best, Bill

Flight pants are OK, one leg pocket has been removed ..

Thanks Jos, and good eye!

I also think that the flagpole bag is gone, but it's hard to see..
They were often removed for some reason..

South front Kanalhose on Ebay. Ends in three hours. Original IMO.

But uncomplete. No more straps for the suspenders.

The loop for the lanyard is wrong and it looks as if some buttons were reattached (no big deal, but they could have tried to do it properly).
