I am new to the forum so please do correct me I I’m using the threads wrong. I recently acquired a rather rare artifact, namely a KL inmates Jacket. Now pictures can only say so much, but I would greatly appreciate your opinions about the jacket. Both in themes of authenticity but also ethical, because I must confess I have quite ambivalent, mixed feelings about owning such an item.
To me the jacket itself looks genuine. The material seam to have faded over a long time, one of the slaves has been replaced, also it has a lot of small repairs done to it. The patina seems right to me, the material also. I’m more worried about the triangle. the stitching looks a bit too crudely done, or is this a good sign?
I obtained it from a seller that I understand has a good reputation.
Thanks in advance
