Looks a good one, IMO. How are the shoulder boards mounted, T-bars or what else?

Jerry: Shoulder boards are sewn in at the sleeve and mounted with the screw type mechanism towards the collar. Larry

Hi Larry and thanks for the info. It was designed to have had t-bars so you can take them off to launder the tunic. Maybe they have been changed for the MTB set, as they would probably increase the tunics value. Still a good tunic but hard to tell from pics when this was done, it could be period. What does it look like in the hand? My Summer ocastal art tunic has had buttons added under the shoulders on the inside to allow the use of slip-on boards, he probably could not get the T-bars, which might be the same for this tunic.

Look like the T-bars have been repaired or something, not a great pic, but could be period done. Do you have this in the hand or are you looking to buy it from images supplied?
