Hi Guys
Please could I get some opinions on this somewhat unusual version of Sahariana- it appears to be a type 1 with pleated pockets but some of the construction features are a little unusual.
- material is very lightweight but appears period, lining areas appear to be Italian material?
- no bandage pockets
- there is a vertical seam in centre of back and no internal tape with drawstring.
- cuffs have been correctly constructed but never had buttons or buttonholes added
- no markings on it anywhere
- buttons appear original but repainted
- all insignia is original, eagle and edelweiss are machine sewn, rank chevron is hand stitched.
any thought greatly appreciated and please let me know if any other photos required.
many thanks
Patrick
