Pre-owned 1940s German Leather Trench Coat Ww2 Horsehide Boss In Black

I Try To Avoid Grandstanding My Political Views When I Am Selling Something For A Profit, But I Am Compelled To For This Type Of Piece, Especially As We Are Watching The Nazi Movement Unmask Its Ugly Face Again With Little To No Leftist Organizing To Oppose It. So I Say This Incase You Are Reading This As A Nazi, A Nazi Sympathiser, A Nazi Apologist Or One Of Those Weird Ass "military Collectors" That For Some Reason Is Only Interested In The Nazis: You Are A Loser. You Are A Loser Not Just Because You Adore A Losing Army That Made Countless Stupid Tactical Errors , Not Just Because You Glamorize A Lonely Bootlicking Speed Addicted Autocrat That Felt So Rejected By The Bourgeois He Desperately Wanted To Be Apart Of (Like How A Child Acts When They Cant Suckle Their Mothers Breast), But Largely Because You Are Just Too Dumb Or Ideologically Lazy To Recognize The Way In Which The True Ruling Class Uses Anti-Semitism To Subvert Genuine Class Discontent To Further Repress The Working Masses And Bring Us All Down. I Will Also Add That People Fetishize The Quality Of German Manufacturing In A Way That Doesnt Acknowledge That Jewish People Were Integral To The Process Of Industrializing Germany Before They Were Systematically Removed From Their Businesses Under Threat Of Death And Violence. In Fact, I'd Even Say German Craftsmanship Got Notably Worse After The Mass Capitalist Consolidation Of The Productive Forces Under Their Forced "aryanization" Process, Not Simply Because Of The War - But In Large Part Due To The Inherent Issues Of Capitalism Itself Rather Than The Identity Of The Person Who Owns The Factory. If You Are A Well Meaning Person Who Finds Themself Seeing Truth In Anti-Semetic Social Media Posts, Please Do Yourself A Favor And Read: "the Anti-Semite And The Jew" By Jean Paul Satre, "nazi Billionaires", "killing Hope: U.s. Military And C.i.a. Interventions Since World War Ii" And "socialism: Scientific Vs Utopian" By Fredrich Engels. The Working People Struggle As One, And It Is The Capitalists And The Capitalists Alone Who Collaborate In Our Subjugation. The Jews Do Not Control The Media, Capitalists Do, The Jews Do Not Control Banking - Capitalists Do, Trans People Arent Raising Your Grocery Prices And Rent, Nor Are They Driving Inflation, It Is The Capitalists That Are. Your Enemies Are Not Cloaked Behind A Veil In The Shadows, They Are The Ceos Of The Top 100 Corporations. They Have Homes, Addresses And Like To Go Out With Their Families For Brunch On Sundays. They Are People That Chose Profit Over People, These Are Your Enemies. With That Said, This Jacket Is Still Really Incredible - Here Is All The Info I Can Give You: The Leather Is Fantastic Quality, Nice Thick And Sturdy. I Didnt Figure Out How To Work The Belting System Until After I Took The Pictures, But It Does Work And Id Say Is Even Particularly Great For Allowing A Wide Variety Of Fits. This Was Almost Certainly Made In Nazi Era Germany In The Late 1930S To Early 1940S. I Believe This Partially Due To The Style, The Zipper & Clasp, And Also Because Its Extremely Unlikely That Products Would Have Been Branded With "adolff" After Ww2, As Germans Did Their Best To Distance Themselves From Nazi-Ism. I Am Unsure If The Jacket Is Made Of Horse Leather Or Not, But I Would Wager It Is. The Leather Is Thick But Still Kind Of Buttery And Quite Heavy, Which Is Similar To Other Horse Leather Jackets Ive Sold. Still, I Cant Say For Certain. If This Was Made In The 1930S Then It Could Have Been For Civilian Use - But If It Was Produced Towards The End Of The War Than It Is Likely To Have Been Made For A Military Or Police Officer. Part Of The Reason I Believe Its So Hard To Find Info About The Manufacturer Is Due To The Context It Was Made In. Firstly, The Town Listed On The Tag Was Not Known For Its Manufacturing Which Suggests This Would Have Been Made At A Small Scale Factory. Further, The German Military Forced The Production Of Needed Supplies From Factories That Normally Didnt Produce Such Goods. It Makes Sense That Proper Records Werent Taken And If They Were They Got Lost In The Rubble Or To Post War Shame (Many Historical Records Of This Period Only Exist In German In Archives You Must Request Access To).

Stamped On Belt: Pgi 50 6480 No Tagged Size - In My Opinion, Item Fits Somewhere Around A Mens Medium Or Large. Measurements (Taken Laying Flat, In Inches) Chests: 23 Length: 47.5 Shoulder: 18.5 Sleeve Length: 24.5 Flaws: Biggest Flaws Are The Stains On The Inner Lining And Wear On The Collar.
