Good Evening Ladies and Gentleman,
I would like your thought on this?, I have just found it on the asaid mentioned auction site! I am asking for a friend who wants it but knows little about it!, I know nothing about uniforms, but am hoping someone here may be able to advise? The label to me does not look right?, its not what I would have expected for a Red Cross uniform to be ARP?
Have a look and let me know if you think its worth a go? Item Number 121142978820
Thankyou in Advance
BM

Very nice items, although I would say that the Blouse label is dated 1953 which is why is has been tampered with. There should be a label in the Greatcoat as well, that is if it is a reused ARP Greatcoat.

I agree with Marc that the label has been altered from 1953.
