Original era manufacture. An issue quality waffenrock in feldgrau wool with panzer pink piping and dark green wool collar and cuffs. Original sewn insignia except for the breast eagle which is from a M1936 service tunic. The tunic is very clean looking, showing normal age and wear with three small moth holes on the right arm. Two are pencil point in size, the third measures about 5x6 mm. The imitation silk lining is basically intact, with some stitch separation at the waist and lower left corner. It is unit stamped near the interior pocket, 2./PzrAbw.33II, it's a bit blurred but quite readable. As a point of interest, the 33rd anti-tank battalion formed part of the 15th Panzer Division, which served with the Afrika Korps until it's destruction in 1943.
