Rare 1930’s Childs or Trade Sample Kriegsmarine Uniform.
A 1930’s beautifully tailored small Childs or a Trade sample Kriegsmarine tunic and cap. made of dark blue wool with a silk lining and fitted with all original buttons and the embroidered insignia for a 1st class signaller in the German Navy. It comes with its original little cap with silk cap tally embroidered in gold with Deutsche Wehrmacht and with a little silver eagle and swastika. This is also made of dark blue wool with a blue silk lining.
Although this is a child’s size, it was probably made by a tailoring firm as a sample to bid for a contract to make uniforms for the Kriegsmarine. The quality is just lovely, far better than any child’s costume or mini uniform I’ve ever seen. It comes on a child size mannequin with cap display, but it would look fantastic on an old Steiff Teddy bear and it would look amazing in any German collection.
The condition is perfect, no moth damage and it has been treated against future insect infestation.
The mannequin supplied has a wooden core and well stuffed, so it is quite heavy, this adds to the cost of posting. If the mannequin is not needed, please let me know, this will reduce the cost of posting. Shipping quoted is for the uniform and mannequin.
