ID Help on Italian Tunic

**AntonEbans** · 02-11-2011, 10:27 PM

I traded for this Tunic years ago and was told that it's a WWI Italian Tunic. As I don't have any reference books on this subject, I thought I'd ask for help here.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Not a subject I know much about, but I believe your ID is correct.

Cheers, Ade.

Hello! As ade, I am not an expert in italian tunics. But, I can tell you with certain that it's an Italian tunic. The stars, are a "signature" of the Italian Army. I got a refrence book of italian uniforms and equipaments during the ww2. And the stars appears in every uniform of the army.

would you mind to tell me how much you paid in this tunic?

Paid? I traded two Austrian buckles for it in 1982.

Ade, Thanks for your super fast reply.

Sorry, I thought that trade means negociate. My english is not that good...
Ahh... I hope that my reply, although not as fast, has also helped.

Looks like a 1909 pattern but does not have the shoulder "rolls". I would guess that is a wartime product that had the "rolls' deleted. Also a pocket I think. It does not have the collar tabs to designate a unit. Rich A. in Pa.
