SS Panzer wrap. Real OR Fake

[QUOTE[/QUOTE]Honest opinions please!!!!!
I’ve recently acquired this tunic described as original but have serious concerns about it’s authenticity!!!
It does show signs that the collar patches, sleeve eagle & cuff title were once attached, & in its favour there are many similarities with the samples in Scott Pritchett’s book volume 3. Your verdicts will be truly appreciated
Many thanks willrich

The Beaver book "Uniform of the Waffen-SS" (Not sure which volume) have a detailed section on SS-Panzer uniforms .

Not too detailed IMO - the Pritchett book is a way better refernece on this subject

I would think it would be a better reference as it it a book devoted to that subject (volume 4 is SS) but as I don't own this book I didn't dare comment on it. I can also add I'm sure the Beaver Book Vol. III has more on SS camouflage and SD uniforms as it covers multiply topics. Also VolIII is on sale on amazon for 60$ Can, at least here in Canada.

Not an original

Fake wrap imo The lining is incorrect, the back of the collar as many lines of stitching, which is a bad sign. Mine is a late war one. But a original.
