    Today I was at a thrift store and found what it seems to be two real British Army 40 Pattern Tunics. I asked the owner where she found the uniform pieces and mentioned that they are from an antiques collector that passed away last year and had ww2 and korean war items.

    Descriptions:
    Uniform-1 has very clearly Z WD, the arrow and what it seems to be the numbers 61, 617, 01 or 017. With it's manufacturer being Albion.

    Uniform-2 doesn't have clear marking of the Z WD, they very faded but it does have it's manufacturer being Ulidia. This one has the last name Jaramillo written on its manufacturers tag and on the inside a small piece of fabric has written Easton Hall with what seems to be the numbers 222 (forgot to take picture of the Easton Hall).

    Both have a metal buckle, only difference being is that uniform-1 buckle doesn't shine and uniform-2 has a shiny buckle (forgot to take picture of shiny buckle). Both have the same sewing patterns and buttons; buttons are made of plastic.

    Conclusion:
    Does anyone have any idea if this uniform pieces are legit? I did some reaserch and they seem to be legit but idk. This is my first time encountering and researching about British uniforms from ww2.

    It's my first post here.
