Hi guys,

Im normally a headgear collector but thought i would share my experiance with my first Tunic.

Before Xmas last year, i was informed by a good friend (he knows who he is..) about this Tunic for sale, which i jumped on !! , its a 5th Artillery Regiment tunic from the 1st Division Superga, my grandfather/Nonno served in the 1st Div Superga... 91st Infantry Regg, so it's a privalige to own my first tunic and also proud its my grandfather's Division he served under.

Thanks to good man & friend (Marcello)

Hallo Paul, yes beautiful tunic.
Is it a correct m.40 in gabardine for war time period.
That have the composite collarg badge for the artillery of the division. The label too say something about the history, Torino in fact was the quartiermaster of the Basilicata Brigade regimets and 5 field Artillery regiment.
Good piece.

Wonderful "Superga" arty. officer tunic. What makes it even better is having an item that has some connection to your Nonno's Military history.
Congrats!
