Artillery officers tunic

[BW-Sammler]

Hey guys,

I want to show you this Officers tunic.

The sewing of the shoulder boards seem a little bit strange.
I have never seen that before on any other tunic. Maybe it´s a late war tunic.

The tunic has no tailors lable.
Condition is near mint.

Thanks for your opinions.

Hi BW. This tunic looks "interesting" It looks very mint, almost too good to be true. The shouder boards are sewn on, not sewn into the seam of the shoulder. The small button on the right shoulder would have probally been used for an aigulette. This officer might have been an adjutant. I love how the collar tabs and eagle are hand sewn. I thought I was the only one to have a tunic like that! This tunic might not have been a field tunic, but rather a walking out tunic. Note the dagger hanger. I don't like how it doesn't have a label. I don't know if it is original, I will leave that to a more experienced collector. I can say, however, that you are extremely lucky if this is real!
