    Description

    ALWAYS RARE TO FIND, JULY 1918 DATED, USMC, OFFICERS, NAMED ( W.P. BLACK ), COMBAT TUNIC / JACKET, TAILOR SHOP MFG: A.Shuman & Co Boston,   Sz SMALL-REG,  EXCELLENT PLUS USED CONDITION.
    SIZE BASED ON FIT WOULD I THINK WOULD BE: SMALL (CHEST) - REGULAR (LENGTH).   I AM 6"2" TALL, 42-43" CHEST.  WILL FIT MODERN MFG MILITARY MANNEQUINS LIKE ( YANKS MANNEQUINS ).
    MFG TAGGED UNDER THE RIGHT FRONT CHEST POCKET FLAP: ( A. SHUMAN & Co, BOSTON ),  MARINE OFFICER NAMED ( W.P. BLACK), DATED ( JULY 1918 ).
    (MAYBE THE WWI USMC UNIT DOCUMENT GUYS CAN TELL US MORE ABOUT HIS USMC HISTORY)
    BEST PIC FOR COLOR OF TUNIC IS THE 5TH CLOSEUP PHOTO.
    TUNIC COLLAR DOES APPEAR TO HAVE BEEN PUNCHED THROUGH FOR SCREW POST OFFICER EG&A EMBLEMS AS WELL AS PIN BACK OFFICER EG&A EMBLEMS.  ONLY DAMAGE I COULD FIND IS A SNAG TEAR IN THE CENTER WAIST AREA OF THE BACK SIDE (SEE PHOTOS).  MATERIAL IS WHAT I CALL GABORDENE STYLE, NOT THE ROUGH WOOL.
    THIS IS A GREAT WAR TIME COMBAT PERIOD USMC OFFICERS TUNIC, AND THEY ARE ALWAYS TOUGH TO FIND.
    I HAVE A PAIR OF USMC OFFICERS COMBAT TROUSERS ALSO LISTED SEPERATELY THAT ARE A CLOSE (BUT NOT EXACT, TROUSERS ARE A LITTLE MORE FORREST GREEN) COLOR MATCH & GOOD SIZE MATCH TO THIS TUNIC.
