To answer your question about the stitching: no previous stitch lines are visible on the entire uniform. The sewing thread is a Z-twist three-fold cotton thread, brown on fall side - grey on spring side. Approximatively thickness 70 - rather thick and therefore correct for the use on heavy duty apparel. I did some tests on spare meterial edging from the seams. Burning test is positive: cotton! Blue light test is positive as well: no optical enhencers used. Therefore: sewing thread is period and original.
