Hi…wondering if anyone could tell me about this coat, have had it for ages. Not sure if it’s a replica, I couldn’t find reference to any with this color arm band. Seems to be loads of knowledge on this site…cheers kaz

I bought a standard, rusty Lebel grease tin a good few weeks back and asked a mate who’s very good with a paint brush to do some patriotic artwork to it for me. I’m so happy with it that I thought I’d show it off a bit.

I reckon it looks fantastic and fits in perfectly with my WWI collection although it wouldn’t look out of place in a WWII collection either.

Unlike some people who paint items such as helmets, his work isn’t done to deceive, it’s done to commemorate, even the rust colour is paint. If anyone’s interested in looking at his other work have a squiz at his site Skywolf UK

With many thanks to Nick, I was able to recently add this one to my collection. I already have a maker marked 24 but not one of these.
