POA collar

[Marcsimps]

Hello, I came across this POA tunic that I'm planning to buy and everything seems fine except the sitching on the reverse of the collar which looks a bit strange to me. I've never seen this type of parallel lines used and I was wondering if anyone here could help me figure out whether this is period stitching or the collar tabs were added later on.

Hello,
Parallel stitchings under the collar are uncommon but not unseen. I've seen and handled Feldblusen 43 and 44 with such a feature...
Posting detailed photos of this garment would be interesting as it seems to be a partial front opening Feldbluse (made of french blue horizon woolen cloth !/?)...
Thanks

Thanks for clearing up my doubts on the collar, I didn't know about this type of stitching. And yes, you're right! It is one of these peculiar tunics made out of French wool. I've been looking for one of these for some time and I'm really happy to have found this one, here's a few other pictures. Hopefully, if everything goes well and I get it I'll post it on this forum
