Hungarian "Cold War" Collection 1945 - 1990
Article about: It's the same cotton-filled material which the Red Army introduced in WW2 (Telogreika), which was excellent against the cold - and possibly was more fire-poof... QUOTE=Scout;937204]Nice find

Thank you James, I have lots more stuff - I'll update more often ... as I've said before, this postwar stuff gets no respect in Hungary (and probably in other "ex-iron-curtain" countries), and I get these for a laugh of a price. For exmpl., this lot was 20 EU for the whole thing...even after a bid-war!
Btw., on ebay, these postwar Hungarian stuff costs a lot more, just the winter usanka would be like 29.99 EU if not more, etc.
Cheers,
Fabe
