M-36 Heer Der Speiss Calvary Tunic

Featured Replies

#1

One of my finds earlier this year is this verified tailor made (Czech wool) M-36 Heer Der Speiss (first sergeant) tunic, properly constructed for a cavalry ranking NCO.

 

Only issues are visible from the rear. A few moth nips and it had one camp out behind the right shoulder board.

This area has been restored only to the point of making it a better display, nor to hide or deceive.

 

First Sergeant, Calvary & taylor made, hard one to find!

A very nice example of a tailor made Model 1936 Senior Sergeant tunic.  The tailoring is excellent and the old style grayish Austro-Hungarian Empire style cloth really makes it stand out for walking out dress.  Do the "piston rings" cuff tress fold into the French cuff seam and is there a tailor label?

Looked it up & no they are not French cuffed.

Sorry, I was unclear in what I was asking.  Some ends of the Tresse tape for the cuffs were sewn into the seam of the sleeve.  Some ends were sewn together by abutting the ends up against each other like most cuff titles.  I was asking how the ends of your tapes were sewn in / together.

 

Here is an odd example of a cuff title that was both sewn into a seam and also sewn together by butting them together on the back of the cuff.

Thanks for all of the compliments.
