Lot contains: (A) Named Kriegsmarine jumper with light wear overall. Jumper is made from a white cotton twill with machine applied insignia: KM breast eagle, two pieces of rank insignia, and a trade patch. Entire jumper, threads, name tag, and insignia glow slightly under a backlight, but the entire uniform has been dry cleaned, which is likely the reason it glows evenly overall. A white name tag is hand sewn to the inside of the lower back, and has "Molthoff, N.356/ 25 S." in red thread. CONDITION: Overall excellent. (B) Kriegsmarine coastal artillery tunic with very light wear overall. Tunic is made from a smooth olive cotton with a number of very light stains. No visible markings. The two top pockets are pleated and scalloped, with a set of award loops on the left upper pocket and another set above the pocket. Lower pockets are unflapped. Inside collar had a cloth tag marked "STEINMETZ & HEHL, HAMBURG", which is machine sewn. Heer style Litzen and an unusual NCO tress are machine sewn to the collar. Metal pin on KM eagle is attached over the right upper pocket via two sewn loops. Enlisted slip-on shoulder straps with wool dark green tops, field gray undersides, and gray wool and cotton tongues are attached. Four removeable front buttons and two removeable pockets buttons are retained with brass clips. The shoulder strap buttons are secured by screws. CONDITION: Overall excellent. (C) Post-WWII East German miner's tunic made from a dark blue wool with light wear overall, light staining, and no visible damage. Tunic is partially lined in a dark blue cotton with no markings. Collar tabs are machine sewn, and NCO boards are attached with cord through two eyelets. CONDITION: Overall excellent. WEZ
