Guest Rick Research Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 I'd agree that the 1930s-40s uniforms certainly seem to be REAL and not costume studio creations. And those sure look like mostly "good" items from the 1950s.I've noticed in recent years that the once great European movie costume houses seem to have completely disposed of their stock and filmmakers aren't even TRYING to get things "right" any more. Actually saw a made for TV movie in the 1990s about a POW in Italy where the "Wehrmacht" were completely equipped with unaltered DDR uniforms! :speechless: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex K Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 Just re-visiting my last post.the suspension loop seems to be oval, and just to confuse matters, is the date 1831?, or is it just my eyes? if 1831 and a repro, they may have got the numbers and side in the wrong order.

Some were original surplus uniforms (like the WW1 overcoats that sold for $50 in 1991) and most others were like this. They still show up once in a while.there was an article in benders' magazine @ 15 years ago about this entitled "Hollywood dresses the military".Rommels' uniform was lent to the movie company that made the "Desert Fox" with James Mason. It disappeared off the set. It's still out there somewhere and the Rommel family wants it back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

christerd Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 Thanks for showing Great display My personal "war" movie is the the German Titanic from 1940?s Not a movies about war but made during wartime. Goebbles thought it would be a great idea to show a lot of Englishmen drown , but the reaction turned out to be the opposite so the movie was forbidden. I think the director was later shot by Gestapo for critizing german soldiers. Christer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
