Good day!
I came across this Luftwaffe Tunic at an antique mall. Overall, I believe it to be an old reproduction, but I am curious if any component of this piece could be authentic.

Here is what little I know:
Nothing glowed under a blacklight.
Only component to fail the burn test was the thread used to attach the collar tabs.
Cufftitle appears to be sloppily applied (ends aren't tucked into seam).
Faint ink markings above the upper left pocket lining.
Stitching for the eagle goes through the interior lining.
I would greatly appreciate your thoughts and opinions regarding any portion of this item.
Thank you for your time!
