Original era manufacture. Dark olive wool Ike jacket with officers cuff bands on each sleeve. OD imitation silk lining with no makers labels. Machine sewn to the left shoulder, is an Austrailian made 5th Air Force SSI. Size about a 40 regular, no moth issues.Matching condition offiers "Pink" shirt with a machine sewn 5th AF SSI on the right shoulder, and a felt Air Force SSI on the left. Maker tag in the collar from an Indianapolis tailor shop. Again, about a size 40.The material the Ike jacket is made from, and the type of material used on the cuff braiding, makes me think there is a good possibility this may be an Australian made Ike.
