WW2 German Splinter Camouflage '43 Pattern Winter Parka

A fabulous example of the non reversible German winter parka 'Wintertarnzug 43' in splinter camouflage.
These popular winter parkas underwent several changes throughout the war the '43 pattern having a strip of camouflage material along its inner left front edge for reinforcement of the buttonholes & also extra camouflage effect when the parka was open. It also had , in most cases as here , the waist ties fitted to the inside only . Very typically constructed from several different pieces of splinter camouflage material the colours are still very strong. Button covering flap has the Roman Numerals size mark of ' II ' with number '67' being a manufacturers code. Front of parka has all large dished dark blue grey metal buttons with two black glass buttons to each sleeve for the identification armband. Size adjustment buttoning tabs to each cuff. Original double waist tie is present to interior waist openings with hood having original tightening cord . There is a black tightening cord to the bottom edge hem of the parka . Rayon lining in very good condition having no rips or tears. Front button is minus from the bottom & there are a couple of small holes in places.
An overall excellent condition example now very hard to find .
