Hi
It is always a shame to get in contact with an altered tunic. The tunic is nice and the insignia show symetrical age on the shoulder and collar boards. The tunic has a tailor patch and it is named. to a ist LT. The problem is that the collar patches although tigh on the collar does not appear to have evidence of being machine sewn. I think they may had replaced the whole collar as I do not see evidence of traces of previous stitching.
The shoulder boards are tight and I do not think they had been replaced.
The tunic is definatedly WWII private purchase.
thanks to all
Juan
