Hermann Göring Tunic - Opinions, Please

[DonC]

All, I would appreciate any opinions as the to the originality of this tunic. No glow under black light. I do not have pictures of the interior, but it is reportedly unmarked.

As always, any assistance is much appreciated.

Imo looks good

Would love to own that one!

Should have EM/NCO eagle. Officer eagle on this rank / tunic quality would indicate a post-war restoration IMO.

Adam, did LW regs permit private-purchase eagles likee the Heer allowed?

No, NCO could do this. Plenty photos of evidence. Especially if promoted to Fahnenjunker and at officer school then standard. Could also wear officer chincord on enlisted-NCO visor hat as candidate officer.

Any date, markings, or unit stamp?

To me the tunic is trying to be both a prewar RGG tunic and a post 1942 HG tunic, which is odd.

Perhaps the cuff title was changed after the HG lettering was introduced in 1942? Didn‘t look like it was manufactured with this c/t.
