update- universal cap on display until I ever locate a nice prewar or wartime LGH visor cap. If anyone has one for sale or trade I’m interested. opinions on tunic are very welcome, looking for honest feedback. I think it’s a good tunic with all original, period applied insignia. I’ve receive neutered negative feedback nor information of usage during the war.

Chris, it’s almost identical to yours. I’m not sure how many colors Prussia used for the Litewka. Also, I don’t know how many NCOs and officers may have ordered private made Litewka in field gray. I know there’s a photos of a field gray Wurttemberg Dragoon Litewka from a feldwebel turned offizierstellvertreter in FELDZUG 1914 or 15 BY MICHAEL BALDWIN.

You’re correct on multiple points. I think the cut of the tunic is exactly that of the litewka and the insignia used is for the litewka. Attached are a couple more examples that I found. It’s very interesting to learn about more styles of dress. I’ve not spent a lot of time on cavalry style dress and almost no time on pre-war uniforms.
