Hi John, looking to clothe that spare torso in your kit room?

The tunic looks fine in the photos from what I can see up to now? As usual, close inspection is needed to the breast eagle and collar tabs. As the officer appears to be highly decorated with a CCC and possibly a DK, I would also inspect the loops carefully. This is difficult if they are correctly done with period thread as it is hard to date when they were applied? This could just be me being paranoid. Check for any wear the awards might have caused to the nap of the cloth, as this might show that they have actually been worn and not just placed there by a collector wanting to show off his badges.
Cheers, Ade.
