This is a really nice condition tunic showing only very light use and age. It is a standard Army M34 cut tunic that shows where SS tabs and sleeve eagle were sewn. The nap on the the collar is worn a bit smooth, but is nice and fuzzy where the tabs were. It is the same with the sleeve eagle. This tunic was used with SS insignia attached. When the area where a breast eagle would have been is looked @ closely; it looks like there was never anything there, but there is sold slight areas where very light mothing is visible. I can't tell if there was an Army eagle originally applied @ the factory before SS insignia was added. It was common for the SS to use Army tunics. The piece shows light age and is overall very nice. I think I have priced it reasonably.
This looks to be a tailor made tunic cut in the old style with hidden lower pockets, and with the rear scallop and button style rear belt hooks. The collar has been converted to be worn open with a shirt and tie, as per 1944 regulations, or still could be worn closed. The condition is very good without damage, but showing some honest use. This tunic came from an antique picker about 10 years ago just the way you see it. It displays nicely, and is a great variation for you tunic whackos.
This is a nice honest tunic which shows some light age and use. The body is very solid with the exception of the small moth hole in the front.

The inside has the dagger hanger carbine hook and a nice Dresden Taylor tag. The Iron Cross ribbon is just loosely tacked into the button hole. Overall, it is a honest officer's tunic. I think a dry cleaning would help it a bit, as it has a never been washed or cleaned appearance.
This is a high quality tunic made with officer's quality insignia, and all around a very nice piece. All the insignia is original to the tunic. The shoulder straps still retain the original artillery regiment's number. The body is very solid without problems with the exception of a .5 inch repair on the collar next to one of the tabs. It does not show very much in a display. The inside of the tunic is made with a wide interior belt and the front piping was made with a red material much the way a general's overcoat is constructed. The size is small, approximately a 34-35. Overall it is a very attractive tunic with only the repair on the collar as a negative, still it displays very well.
This is a solid honest HBT summer tunic. The green material shows age and use, but is very good and although has faded some, is still a good green color.

The shoulder strap loops are present, but missing shoulder buttons. I will include a set of buttons, so you can sew them on and install slip on straps.
