Description
Fine Wehrmacht 4-pocket tunic for a General of the Heer. Excellent quality tailored example in very good condition.
 
Fine hand-embroidered General´s collar tabs original to this tunic. Replaced shoulder boards and breast eagle. Boards with two pips indicating the rank of a "General". Very fine example with nice patina. No mothing or damage. You can see they were promoted from a Generalleutnant to a General since there was one pip to the center before. Gold shoulder board buttons to unscrew. Hand-stiched General´s breast eagle with minor signs of wear. Dark green cloth backing.
 
All buttons are EXTRA FEIN marked and attached with exactly the same thread. Vertikal button line piping. Three pair of award loops with clear signs of wear. Six loops for a long ribbon bar. You can see the one to the left and the one to the right were attached later as for a longer ribbon bar. That definitely happened period time! Distance from the first to the last loop: 10,5cm.
 
Very good condition. Only one small moth hole to the reverse. Size M.
