This is a example of the early war M41 field jacket. It has been period altered for the wool lining to be removed and buttoned back in when needed. The material has a nice khaki color and is overall sound except for the cuffs which were frayed, and field repaired. The color has a few very small holes. The Talon zipper is original and works fine. This jacket displays very well and is a solid example.
This came out of a garage sale last summer in Indiana just the way you see it. Nothing has been added! It is a nice honest tank destruction Ike jacket with all the original insignia. The wool body has some mothing throughout, but nothing terrible. It is nicely named with a serial number on the inside. This is a good research project.  
This is a super Ike jacket. It is an issue New Zeeland battle Dress jacket issued to U.S .troops. The patches are US made, and consist of a nice 43rd div and a Pacific Command patch. The jacket has NZ markings and date stamps. The size is a 38. It shows a tiny bit of moth tracking, but no damage. This is out of the woodwork in Western Michigan. I have seen this combination before with the 43rd div on a NZ tunic.
This is right out of the woodwork in Dearborn, Michigan. It is a set all belonging to the same GI. Sorry, but my picker did not get the name. The entire set is exactly the way it belonged to the GI, as he wore it. The jacket, size 36 has a nice marksman badge with the rare driver hanger. The shirt and trousers are all sized small and appropriate to the jacket. This was a small guy. The inside tag was dated but I am unable to read the date. The entire set has a very typical WWII color, and is not the darker post war color. There are some very small moth holes throughout the set, but they are really really few and small. The worst mothing is on the tie. Overall it is a good grouping of a nice combat unit.
This is a perfect one! It is not NEW, but super nice. A classic WWII piece of Marie combat clothing. It has no problems or damage. You will love it!
This is a mint condition overcoat size 38R. There in no mouthing, and it is very clean. It has a nice ruptured duck sewn on the front. If you do not have one of these in your collection, this would be a very good example. It is from a WWII vet's estate, and definitely a WWII example, with a nice tag.
This is a great pair of original U.S. WWII gloves. They are mint the leather is soft and plyable the wool is clean and without tears or holes. The original quartermaster and size tag is intact. This pair of gloves would be a nice addition to any collection.
This is a good honest used pair. They show age and use, but are solid for a display, but I would not use them reenacting, as they are not solid enough for running in the woods. They will look fine on your mannequin.
These are unissued and very nice. The rubber parts are perfect. the leather shows some deterioration on the back but otherwise they are great. They will look perfect in a winter display.
