U-072 Choice, Mint, Unissued Documented Model 1943
SS Tunic
Get the picture? This is an absolute gem! It is produced in dark
green (Italian) wool that shows little to no wear or discoloration. The
original, full nap is still present on the wool. It has a five- button closure
and four pockets with straight flaps. All buttons are field grey finished,
pebbled metal. The tunic is set up for slip-on shoulder boards. There is a
perfect SS sleeve eagle, beautifully machine applied with the textbook
zig-zag stitching to the left sleeve. This is machine embroidered in silvery
grey cloth with a black wool backing. The interior is partially lined in a green
HBT material that is like new. There is a single bandage pocket and four straps
for the belt loops, each of these items are produced in HBT as well. Just above
the bandage pocket, on the right side closure seam, are ink stampings indicating
the sizes. This exact tunic is featured on page 381 of the book entitled Uniforms of
the Waffen SS, Volume II by Michael Beaver. It is a size 36/38. A fantastic
item overall, don’t miss out!
