The jump smock may be original, the wings and slip ons could be easlily added and would make the item more desirable in the Canadian market, shouldn't the pips be airborne sky blue instead of red. The seller has known to make items up, this was probably picked up at the Calgary mega show on the Easter weekend. I ahve noticed that some post war smocks are being passed off as WW2 with the addition of a well washed out reproduced makers tag. I have even seen BMB helmet liners reproduced for the parachute and dispatch helmets. Amazing what is out there for copies even two tone helmet nets!
