My greatest fear is that one day I will die and my wife will sell my guns for what I told her I paid for them

Tony,
Your correct. Piping and buttons removed. Here are some pics (best I could do) showing the difference between where the orgininal seams were and the seams where the piping was removed.
1) side with piping removed
2) Side with no piping
3) Backside with removed buttons.
Thanks for your help.
Michael

It looks like what is referred to as an "Alter Art" Feldbluse. I have an example with a similar "scalloped" back. It has two buttons where the darts are in the back. I think this style was indeed from a transitional period between the Reichswehr era and the TR era. It may be an updated Bluse worn by a career soldier. The older style Bluse would identify the wearer as a veteran. NH
A really nice tunic as I mentioned before ,it is so nice when a piece comes along and you can put it's "time line" together from one period of use to the next. That is one tunic I would love to own! Leon.

This is a keeper. Now please complete it with matching cap and the rest of the pieces, so we can enjoy it on a mannequin!

Wearing the "Dienstrock alter Art" was a popular thing among officers and even some enlisted in the Wehrmacht Heer. I have some.
Now that is a sweet looking example Neil
Nice to see this thread pop back up again! I almost forgot I had this tunic. Had to put it in the closet a few years back as other examples took over the mannequin Think I'll take it out, add the DKiG and EK1, wound badge and IAB/GAB and make it look pretty again.
