    Description

    Up for sale is a very rare Marine Corps Pattern 1900 or 1903 Khaki Tunic. This tunic has the Marine pattern sleeve ands and buttons. The buttons are of Brass denoting the Earlier patterns, In 1904 the buttons where changed to black, and I believe the collar where also made "taller. This Tunic also has the earlier "short" collar. There is some slight staining as you can see in the photos, but otherwise this tunic is in excellent condition. The only damage to the whole item is one small hole, (see image) but it does not go through the fabric, it is only on the surface of fabric. All of the buttons and metal hardware are present and functional. For being well over 100 years old, this is an excellent item. I do not know the proper pattern of this tunic, but that it is made in the time period of 1900-1903.
