I guess pride means more to some than facing the truth.
Like the jacket or not, your choice, for whatever reasons you choose.
But, may I ask, how many items that you own can be positively documented from 1945? Asking the same of my own collection, the answer is Very Few! If that is to be one of a persons "collecting criteria" then I would have to believe that they will have a Very Small collection.
As to pride over truth, I must take some issue with you; and will assume that your comment is not meant to be negative. I do have a respectable amount of pride in my conduct, and I would Not be supporting an item that I did not believe in.

May I ask a simple question?
Forgetting the liner, the insignia, the provenance, etc., etc. .......IS THE UNDERLYING BLACK SHELL WRAP ORIGINAL OR NOT?
Surely, someone here can answer this with real authority and tell us why it is or is not.
If it is not, this entire exercise is a waste of time.

1. Where was the tunic located prior to its aquisition in the 1970's?
2. Precisly what year was it found?
3. Who found it?
4. Where, and under what circumstances was it found/ aquired?
5. What brought you specificly to the conclusion that the tunic in and of itself was 100% authentic?
6. What has been the chain of ownership (in other words who owned it/ when)
Last and most importantly
7. Why have most if not all the sale requirments on this tunic started with the caveat "you can not post it on any boards, or in public forums?"
Now there are basic quesitons any person interested in aquiring the item should be asking, now lets see the answers from the involved parties.

Let me adress point to point:
1. "how many items that you own can be positively documented from 1945? "
All of the SS pieces in my private collection.
2. " If that is to be one of a persons "collecting criteria" then I would have to believe that they will have a Very Small collection."
Yes my collection is modest/ small. I do not strive for quantity, I go for quality, and authentisity only. In fairness I do have a cap that I am questioning the insignia on, which could have been switched by the vet himself, or at the museum.
3. "I do have a respectable amount of pride in my conduct, and I would Not be supporting an item that I did not believe in."
I agree, and understand that you truely believe in this tunic. The question is why? Your conduct all thought not crude is hyper allusive on this issue, which could calls your motives, by some into doubt .
Please address the questions I posted on the most recent page, to clarify your belief in the tunic.Last edited by BlackBelt; 06-26-2007, 11:18 AM.

Now there are basic quesitons any person interested in aquiring the item should be asking, now lets see the answers from the involved parties.
1. Where was the tunic located prior to its aquisition in the 1970's?... I have no knowledge.
2. Precisly what year was it found?... As above.
3. Who found it?... As above.
4. Where, and under what circumstances was it found/ aquired?... In AZ in the mid 70's
5. What brought you specificly to the conclusion that the tunic in and of itself was 100% authentic?... My examination of the piece over the time I owned it.
6. What has been the chain of ownership (in other words who owned it/ when)... I bought it in 80 from the "original collector" (to the best of my knowledge) that found it, and have owned it until several months ago.
7. Why have most if not all the sale requirments on this tunic started with the caveat "you can not post it on any boards, or in public forums?" ...To my knowledge the tunic was Not posted for sale in this thread.
I am certain that will not be acceptable, but I cannot offer you anything more, as I do not know anything more.

Mr. Singer
With all due respect, you have not answered one of the questions. The questions posed were for specifics. Cloak & dagger once again. So the questions still remain for the next batter.
