Description
Original WW2 German pilot's leather jacket with rank sewed on. This leather jacket would have been private purchase (not official issue) and is a small to a small medium size. It has three sets of loops -- one horizontal and two vertical on the left side of the jacket. I displayed a bomber clasp at the top and an Iron Cross first class as well as a pilot's badge below. Also I noticed horizontal holes in the leather on the right side so i displayed a large metal German air force eagle there. this jacket has wear -- there is a separation behind the collar when you left the collar but is not noticeable when displayed normally. There is wear on sleeves etc. It is plenty salty. This jacket displays really well -- I had it on a hanger with a grey shirt and a repro flyers scarf (I'll throw that in). the rank shoulder insignia has been sewed on and actually they are reversed which experts say is quite common to original jackets and tunics. This jacket is a good way to display original German medals and looks so good when they are attached. The loops could have been repaired in the past -- I'm not sure. The jacket had a button that fell off but I have the button and will include it. .Shipped with USPS Priority Mail. US sales only -- shipping to lower 48 states only
