Mike, an absolutely wonderful and ultra rare first pattern US Jump Jacket!!! I have never observed one of these in such condition with the tags. I also have a great appreciation for US Airborne uniforms and USAAF A-2 leather flight jackets. Thanks for sharing!

Dave.

Thanks must go to B.N. Singer for this one!

M40 Jump Jacket....WOW! How was the tag used? Almost seems like some sort of 1st model sample or display piece.

Thank you Sir for your comment,

That has in fact been suggested, i.e., that it might have been a "prototype" for the production run.

(and actually I think my original "designation" might be incorrect, I think this is an M41 NOT M40).

I have a good year in 2008. I do not think I will buy much in 2009.

thanks

Hi,

Something is strange on this picture, these uniforms close in a female way?!

No, Wim - the plackets with the buttons are showing - they button in the normal fashion. (Unless Juan has started collecting Helferin combat tunics, of course...)

Well I hope I dont get kicked from the forum for posting an ss tunic in this section but this is the only tunic in 2008 and I would like to share it. It is a bit rough and combat worn. The display is not yet finished
Cheers

Hi Don,

You are right, I did not look well enough!

Truly AMAZING, this is a dream to some of the most advanced US Airborne collectors out there in the world! I can not imagine that there are many of these out there, perhaps this is the only one (with the original tags)?

I have to compliment you Mike, aside from having one of the most advanced TR collections out there, you field a beauty such as this jacket!!!

AMAZING
