Patched USMC Korean war era Werber G1

[bazelot]

Just acquired this one. It's in amazing shape and the only resprayed g1 i have ever seen. It was resprayed when the patches were on the jacket so the original owner must have got it done.

Great looking Werber! Congrats !
Was some type of treatment done to the collar ? The coloring looks a little different than what you might usually see.

Gorgeous jacket and for sure this old lady could tell a lot

Thanks, nothing done to the collar. I have other Werbers with the same type of collar color

Impressive. Can you see anything at all on the nameplate?

There is no nameplate

I really like that, didn't know they redyed g1 jackets! Perhaps the owner just wanted to sharpen it up

I believe he also wanted to remove the USN on the back collar since he was USMC

Awesome Jacket! May I be so indiscreet as to ask how you scored it?

Nice piece of history
