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 two hand-embroidered rank-gulls above a half oakleaf wreath, is nicely hand-sewn to the collar, the collar tabs have been replaced once, this looks period done. The collar tabs make a perfect match with the shoulder boards. The tunic is having shoulder-boards of the sew-in type having the yellow 'Waffenfarbe' indicating an 'Oberleutnant' within a Flight (Flieger) or Paratrooper (Fallschirmjäger) unit. There are award-loops on the left breast for wear of one award and one clasp or ribbon bar. A piece of iron cross ribbon was found in one of the breast-pockets. The interior of the tunic is lined in grey rayon. The tunic is complete with a name tag and tailor label from tailor 'Friedrich Dalleske' from Leipzig. The tunic is in good used condition, there is some minor staining/damages and regular traces of usage, see photos. A nice Luftwaffe Officer's aiguillette is attached to the tunic. Nice original tunic in good used condition!
