Panzer EM wrap

[Stepdale]

Hello,
I got this in a trade in the late 90s and have never had it reviewed, so wanted to see what you thought as cloth is not my strongest area. The shoulder boards have been sewn down completely all around the edges and the sewing went through the lining. Sorry for the poor photos but the best I could do as i only had a few minutes to take them. I can try to take more if anyone needs them.
Thank you,
Dale

There are several unusual characteristics with this one (maybe the most unusual issue wraps that I have ever seen, but I think that it all original. I like it.

Thanks Phil.

Found this thread from 2009 that shows the same maker - http://dev.wehrmacht-awards.com/foru...ght=dekawe+ffm. I've always felt good about this tunic, but never showed it to anyone so wasn't positive.

Thanks for the link. I recognized the maker, but I am not sure if I have seen a depot date like this one that is a month and year (I assume) and no letter.

This has to be one of the last ones with sewn around straps....seemingly factory done and was not made for slip on straps in any case, and must have been one of the first ones to use the rayon piping although I know it was in use to some degree as early as 1939.

A lot of small details with the sewing is different than what is usually found, but again I think that this one is all correct.
