Adult Size !
All buttons (Red Cross blue Bakelite? buttons) except one small one on left shoulder epaulet. All other buttons, including the large front ones are there in Excellent Condition. ~25 to 25 1/2 inch chest measurement.
This size uniform WHICH IS USUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO GET THIS LARGE (people were just much smaller back then) from a small collection of uniforms, that are duplicates, or some patches have been removed. Many are older ones.  Most have all buttons unless mentioned. Please use PHOTO for final word on condition, size and item. Uniform pictured is the exact uniform piece you will receive.

Very Nice Uniform - usable for wearing or display.
(Note- Sizes are estimates based on measurements we take individually on each item with our cloth measuring tape - not what is listed on size label - which is usually not there.)
Uniforms good to wear or display, are shipped in most economical form possible for buyer. Usually shipped rolled. Sets with pants are often heavier and many times can not be shipped other than Priority Mail because of weight.
Most are OLDER ISSUES from 1960's, 1970's, and 1980's

ERA: 1940's - 1950’s
CONDITION*: VG - Excellent
***NOTE -
photo
should be final determination on condition. What one person considers GOOD another considers VERY GOOD. Some may be said to be VG (Very Good) not because they were ever used, but because they may have been in a collection or drawer and not be perfectly flat. Usually we put Good (if slightly blemished, or taped into a book, or once used, etc.) or Very Good (pretty nice - perhaps never used, or slightly used, but still look nice) or EX, EXCELLENT (Very Nice shape, appears never used) or MINT - (Mint is Mint - almost perfect or better). We are not expert of military, scouting or Red Cross items so what you may be looking for is not what we see. Please keep that in mind. We will try our hardest to help.
