    Here are some photos of an SS camo jacket. I don't know much about these. What should I look for?

              The smock is bad. Those photos are worse.

              If someone can't get even a decent photo, how the hell are they expecting to sell a 4 or 5 digit priced jacket?

                Thanks. I assume it is bad so I will pass on it.

                  I think you should buy it.

                    The fellow offering me it said he bought it from the son of a veteran of the 104th Infantry Division who brought it back. I still am hesitant as I have two different opinions.

                      There's an easy way to get totally confirmed:

                      Take half decent photos

                      I can already say 99.9% certain it's a total repro; even the camo print looks wrong to me.

                        A private party in another state is offering it to me. I won't be buying it. Thanks to everyone for the advice.

                              Originals are often done by hand. Machines to do this are quite easy and most reproduction have machine-sewn ones.

                              The lace holes on this appear done with a modern machine and do not resemble wartime machine-sewn eyelets.
