Cloth is not my specialty, but the shoulder boards and collar suggest 1950s while the mark left by a screwback order on the inside of the left breast side of the jacket suggests the owner had an older style order attached for a very long time.:confused:

I think the traces on the cloth are from a Red Star and maybe OGPW.

If I remember correctly, those uniforms were already out of use in 1952.

Nice piece. I always like little details like the little flap on the front of the neck liner to keep the hooks from digging into one's manly neck.
My books shows a new navy parade uniform with an open collar in 1955. It was the thing to do, I guess since everyone else was changing.
