HERMANN GOERING DIVISION NCO TUNIC
SOLD!
Superb, private purchase, 1935 pattern, Luftwaffe blue/grey, wool/rayon blend construction ''HG'' tunic.
The tunic features a vertical, four button front closure with small, upswept, fold back lapels and a lay down collar. The tunic has four, pleated, patch, front pockets with straight edged button down flaps. The right breast has a hand embroidered 1st pattern Luftwaffe eagle in bright silver/aluminum wire threads with grey cotton thread accents on a cut-out blue/grey wool base. The eagle is neatly handstitched to the tunic and has the same patina. There are 2 sets of loops on the left breast pocket, loops for a ribbon bar over it, and a set (possibly for a Spanish Cross) on the right pocket. Indeed a soldier that received several awards!
The straight cut sleeves have deep fold back French cuffs which are tacked in the upright position at both the inner and outer sleeve seams. Nice original Oberfeldwebel Collar tabs and shoulder boards (shoulder boards are made in Trikot, the same type of wool used for the tunic). Collar tabs are machine stitched and have the red piping indicating the Flak. The lay down collar has the typical zig-zag reinforcement stitching to the reverse. The forward edge of the collar is trimmed in bright, twisted, silver/aluminum cording.
Hermann Goering NCO’s cufftitle is neatly machine stitched to the lower right sleeve, and the stitching was made before the tunic was lined. The interior of the tunic is fully lined in grey/brown rayon with off-white, striped sleeves. The lining has a horizontal slash pocket to the left and right breasts and a small horizontal slash to the reverse of the left exterior pocket for the sword/dagger hanger.
The tunic, for a officer candidate, is in overall very nice untouched condition. The buttons are all the bright, silver washed and appear to have their original stitching.
A very rare untouched Hermann Goering tunic.
