Chip Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 Unissued Bavarian Bluse. Full length Hoheitsborte, shorten to just a strip on the front of the collar in 1917. Very early 1916 still using left over lion buttons. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fritz Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 This is very similar to the example I have, just the proportions differ, on my example the skirting is longer, possibly as for field artillery, or so-called "Landwehr-Schnitt"? These are photos taken about 20 years ago. The shoulder pieces do not belong to the tunic, F.A.R.63. The field cap has a maker mark from Augsburg, undated, ca. 1915, here without Reichskokarde, which were removed after 9.November 1918, since rectified. Otherwise all original buttons, no shoulder loops, and no trace of a former "Aschinger"-Borte. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chip Posted April 17, 2019 Author Share Posted April 17, 2019 The "Landsturmschnitt" specifically relates to a Waffenrock designated for issue to the entire army in 1914. It has nothing to do with the description of a Bluse. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
