I'd want to see very detailed photos of the interior and the eagle. These jackets have been reproduced, in varying quality, for decades. The latest top-end copies are coming out of the Czech Republic. Huge profit margins on these, if you can pass a fake off as an original.

A few years back, there was a flood of kanalhose (channel pants) onto the market. Extremely well made. All with plastic RiRi zips. All from the Czech Republic.

Nowhere is it claimed to be an original, that could be an omen.
I wonder about the reply if the seller was asked so.

Karl Heisler was a manufacturer before and during WWII allright.
Tags can be reproduced.
Maybe someone knows Rapid zips?
