Rauchtarn m-40 smock
This example was once in my collection but I traded it with a collector friend. I thought it might be a good idea to save this pictures for future reference:
Double needle seam and some typical flaws in construction.
The double needle seem is running through the hole smock - from the end of the sleeves to the bottom of the smock.
The whole smock is constructed with black thread - only the button holes are made with field grey thread. Most of the later made smocks do have black thread. The earlier smocks (M-38) and covers do often have tan colored thread.
Thank you for sharing ! Beautiful smock .
And you read my mind regarding the use of the double needle sewing machine .

Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader
House Carles at the Battle of Hastings
