Army Infantry Hauptmman Tunic
Tailor made tunic, all grey green smooth wip cord type wool material. Tunic has six button front with four patch pleated pockets with scalloped pocket flaps, buttons are the dish pan type with grey green painted finish, they have been resewn and are a little loose, this is common, when you button the tunic up days after day they get loose, think some collector tried to resewn these. There are two loops for award, one badge on pocket with loops above for ribbon bar or combat clasp. The breast eagle is hand embroidered in silver aluminum wire on dark green wool, the aluminum wire is worn from field wear. The collar tabs are hand embroidered in silver grey wire on dark green with two white bars on each, and machine sewn to the grey green collar, think the tabs have been replaced, they show very little wear, as with the tunic they should show more wear, they are real. Shoulder boards are the sewn in type with light grey braid with white wool underlay with two gold rank pips on each, boards look original to the tunic. The inside is lined with a light grey silk rayon type material with one inside breast pocket with tailors tag on the inside of the pocket, there is no name on the tag, looks like the owners name may have been removed, tag is in nice but worn condition. Overall tunic would display very nice, one thing about this tunic that make the tunic itself rare is that it has matching grey green collar, and not the standard dark green collar, otherwise shows light fading with wartime field wear.
