In memory of my father who was in K-Einsatz, combat engagement, with the RAD in the Alps in 1945, of my grandfather who was with the IR 87 during campaign in France in 1940 and of my grand-uncle who served in the Gardegrenadierregiment Nr. 3 "Königin Elisabeth" and who was killed in action at Craonne, Chemin des Dames in France in 1917
All good, but i suspect the Tabs have been added later
Both legitimate. As mentioned the tabs on the second one are later add on's.
I can't clearly see the lable in the second jacket, but the name looks like:
村上 静雄
Murakami Shizuo
It is dated
昭和二十年五月
Shōwa nijūgo-nen go-gatsu
1945, May
--Guy
A nice example of both winter and tropical uniform.
Top jacket; issue stamps say: (oval stamp over the large one) 98 Type.
Big square one, read from right to left: (size) 6, Showa 17 (1942), Osaka Depot.
Nice, unissued.

Dear all,
Thank you very much for your answers and evaluations. Wow, I would not have seen that the tabs were added later. I have just re-started my interest in Japanese military objects (now in real ones after a very, very long time when I played with the Airfix plastic soldiers in my childhood ).
May I ask you when the winter unifom was worn, maybe at which campaigns during WW 2? And maybe who used it: Army, Navy, Air Force, civil organisations, maybe police too?
With best wishes

Dear all,
Once again, thank you very much for your evaluations. At the end I have prefered to buy the winter tunic because there were no new changes.
With best wishes
