Description
Up for your consideration is an original World War Two US 3rd Army / Austria Occupation forces Ike jacket uniform and photographs grouping.Bidding starting at .99 with NO RESERVE.
Overall condition is very good. Ike jacket shows signs from wear and use.
There are several photos showing the soldier wearing the same exact jacket during the Occupation era.
Nothing has been added nor removed to this grouping and it is being sold exactly as found.
It appears that either the vet, or family, had just pinned all of the extra ribbons onto the jacket after he was done wearing it.
Jacket features a nice British made ribbon bar (missing one campaign star), and nice theater made DI pins (seen in the period photos of the soldier wearing the jacket).
The photo album is mostly blank. There are several full pages inside however many of the photos were never attached into the album so they are loose. There are quite a few photos with hand writing on the backsides of them.
Although the jacket does have some writing on the inside I'm not entirely sure on the exact name. I have not really gotten the chance to review every single photo for a name.
This is a very cool grouping that contains many great original photos and as mentioned above, several showing the same jacket being worn in Austria.
The album itself is pretty heavy so that will be taken into consideration on shipping.
Thanks for looking!
I combine shipping on multiple orders!
