    I wish to learn more about this jacket, can anyone help,

    Good morning everyone,
    im new here, so let me present myself, first im canadian, and im french from quebec so pardon my awefull grammar,
    second i serve in the force along time ago, i never let go of the love of the gear and clothes,
    third, here is a rare item i acquire more than 18 years ago,
    its a mint condition parade or officer jacket, last i recall it was made in germany, by a company name Rory idealklader, it fit me like a glove for some weird reason , when i was younger it was too big, but i grew into it , the few time i actually wore it, the jacket is really in good condition no smell what so eve i always kept it under wrap in secure location, even after 59 years its still mint, and warm as ever
    if anyone know what or where its from and if there is any value to this let me know, thank you
    sincerly
    jFrancois

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    Three crowns; it appears to be a Swedishicon Army greatcoat.

    Yes, Swedishicon great coat, made in 1954. The Swedish coats are very comfortable and warm. Hard to find nowadays but not terribly high priced, maybe - if in new, unissued condition - worth about $65 - $75.
