The collar tabs are replaced, and I think the eagle too.

For the other things make better close-up.

Hi Lee, I think this jacket might be good.

But I am not keen on the addition of the cuff title; very few of these jackets ever got the cuff title put onto them. Collectors are fond of adding them....

Like Stefano, I suspect the eagle has been replaced due to it's high placement.


Cheers, Ade.

I completely agree. Good jacket with replaced insignia. You have a nice example and I will leave it at that.

Hi Leeb,
the tunic itself is an original one, but I can tell you with 23323% certainty that this piece has been bought off eBay last year devoid of any insigna,and this is not the first time that the seller, booted from eBow-wow,tries to sell it again with another account...........does he tell in the description the story of a "certain" tunic found in Sicily 12 years ago !

Shouldn't the chest eagle swaztika over lap the pocket flap? Collar litzen nearer the front edge etc?
