I will finally have a smaller size mannequin in
two weeks...and can photograph these uniforms
finally with full kit ..All these items are unissued...virtually new..nothing added..nothing removed..just as they came.Sorry for the image size..the jacket and pants tend to "blend together" at this resolution. The dot pants on the left are true "panzer" dot cut..the first I've ever owned. All the pieces are a very good size..the panzer pants are virtually for a 7 foot giant..they are huge.

Very nice !
Here is a link to a photo I posted on another forum - I tried to cut & paste, no luck so I posted the link. Have a look at the dot camo pants.

These photos were taken by the U. S. Army Signal Corps and unfortunately I do not own the original.

Hi buddy,

I was in W�rzburg, Bamberg, N�rdlingen and Oberstdorf all in Bavaria. Man I love the place. I even stated in the Willy Messchersmit hotel in Bamberg where he once started his office... how cool is that?
So you are going to M�nchen? What a great city.. I hope you enjoy.

Fred
