I know next to nothing about Cloth and no idea if this Tunic is Good or Bad?

Looks like Schutzpolizei tunic with added eagle

[John Pic]

Put together because by the time that Sleeve Eagle was made the Division had converted to satndard Runic tabs and SS insignias.

yes.

And would NOT have been worn on this tunic; SS Polizei Division wore initially basic Heer style tunics, this is a Schupo tunic; something completely different. The combination of insignia is a complete fantasy and historically incorrect.

You better replace the schoulder boards and sleeve eagle for the correct Polizei versions and remove the rank chevron; this was never worn on Schupo tunics. Collar tabs okay.
The SS membership runes -if real- can remain of course (although these appear to be on fieldgrey- rather then Polizei green- backing, and are therefore intended for the fieldgrey tunic worn by f.e. Polizei Division, Prinz Eugen, Handschar etc). The golden buttons are incorrect as well.

Just run a search for 'combat police tunic', this must come up with some decent examples or Schupo tunic on the internet.

I am curious if your inquiry was out of pure curiosity or were you going to get into cloth with this possible purchase?

And they discontinued to wear green piping on the boards, after they got runic tabs
The thread starter has also wrong shoulderstraps at all- they are fakes, and not a Polizei

Tunic

To answer the question, No i am not collecting cloth, just picked up a small pile of stuff, this Tunic included, i may part it out or hang it on the wall as i still think it is a nice looking piece, wright or wrong.

Indeed an authentic SchuPo combat tunic (with non combat polizei litzen,still possible like this) but the rest is all incorrectly added to make it appear like combat waffen SS Polizei ...Such a uniform they did not wear...Only field gray!
