This tunic does not have the "slanted pockets in the skirt" as mentioned in the literature.

Certainly seems genuine from a detail standpoint? Sewing of the emblems looks original as well?

Sorry that I have to dissent in the above. I have owned SD uniforms in my day, even field grey ones, and I do not think this insignia is correct.

I will send it to Delich, if you want, and he will tell you with total authority.

The tunic itself maybe a police style tunic, but I do not follow these.

SD badges have been faked for decades.

Here are two authentic examples. I have to find good examples of the silk and or cotton machine embroidered versus the alu wire variant. These are the Gestapa type, of course.

The machine stitching of the eagle through the lining is also not a good sign, either.

My thoughts also.

This image is from a book from the early 1970s, and I am not sure what I think of it in the year 2016.
