Need help! SS Different tunic types

I have been searching Google images for a period photo of an SS tunic that i have heard described but never seen, Basically it is the tunic in the attached image with the two buttons at the back and the slanted pockets, but with army style dark green collar around the neck. Is this a real type of SS tunic or is it made up?

Captured equipment in Polish hands

Hi guys,
Could you post here your photos of Polish soldiers with captured German or Italian weapons and equipment or photos of such stuff from your collections?

Deutscher Frauenwerk abzeichen

Got this today. It is a beautifully made little badge marked as made by F.Zimmermann (M1/72). I am told that these badges were in use just before the NS Frauenschaft badges. Any idea as to which period that was?
