Wound stripe has been recently added.
If those closure and cuff buttons have adorned this for many decades, there will be evidence of their oxidation onto the fabric - additionally, there would be some old rust under the pocket-flaps from the shanks of those U.S. made buttons.
For me it's a legitimately worn and sun/cleaning solution bleached 1950s piece with modern-applied original WWII/early postwar embellishments.
It displays nice in any case though...
Cheers,
Richie
