Description
A choice and early example of a Waffen-SS M38 camouflage smock. Produced in highly desirable « palm » pattern on a smooth linen based cotton duck material. This smock is the first one in the series and produced in the desirable darker color variation with emphasis on the darker green color. Both sides of the smock have the same identical pattern. The smock is in excellent condition showing very light wear if any. Probably worn for a short period of time. Cuffs are made from the same materials the main body and show the same printing flaws on both side spring and autumn sides. Colors and print remain vivid and truly contrasting. Both sides are in excellent shape. The smock shows no field repairs, rips, or stains. The smock retains its original green drawstring which is commonly missing. Loose factory threads are still present going from hand sewn eyelet to eyelet. Factory applied elastic for the neck is complete and untouched. The waist and cuffs show the addition of elastic applied. Cuffs are crisp and in excellent condition as are the pocket flaps. Of the most important factors on this smock and almost never encountered is that the name of the former owner is still present on the fall side « Scha.... »! Although not fully readable a nice addition. Overall a rare and desirable example that has become the pinnacle of Waffen-SS smocks. Choice.
