A Nice Colonel

These come in now and then, the M1943 parade tunics for red army officders, but most are postwar made; 6 sided boards, metal or yellow thread embroidery, etc.

This is a nice rare example of an actual wartime one. Note the five sided boards, the real gold embroidery, and whats really neat is that on the back of all the buttons it says:
"Handy Button Mach. Co. Chicago"
