Very nice high quality, privately purchased blue/grey wool construction 1935 pattern Luftwaffe four-pocket tunic (Waffenrock) as intended for an 'Oberleutnant der Flieger/Fallschirmjäger'. The tunic features a vertical, four button, front closure. The right breast has a very nice quality hand-embroidered officer's type breast-eagle neatly hand-stitched to the tunic. A pair of yellow-coloured collar tabs, both showing one hand-embroidered rank-gull above a half oakleaf wreath, is nicely hand-sewn to the collar. The tunic is having shoulder-boards of the sew-in type having the yellow 'Waffenfarbe' indicating an 'Leutnant' within a Flight (Flieger) or Paratrooper (Fallschirmjäger) unit. There are award-loops on the left breast for wear of one award and one Iron Cross ribbon bar. The interior of the tunic is lined in grey rayon. The tunic is complete with a name tag and tailor label from tailor 'A.Walter & Sohne', the name and dated are slightly faded, see photos. The tunic is in very good condition, there are some regular traces of usage. Stunning original Pilot/FJ tunic in very good condition!
