Mottled Camo Original and Repro


                           Photo: Bud O'Toole


Bud was very proud of his fabric, always compared with the original, here was a SS Zeltbahn, which he called 1/4 and his fabrics, that's why you just can't tell its a repor after thirty years aging.

There was two smocks, two M43 hats and one helmet cover in the photo, all made by Bud's fabric, he tole to use magnifying glass for details, now we could enlarge it on PC, but that's was the only way to share information.

As I said I knew nothing of the the Waffen SS camo, Bud called it Mottled, this book call it Plane Tree, Almark Publications called it Spring Summer, Autumn, Andrew Mollo did not gave it any name, just called it First patter.....

  1. It's interesting that a variation of the Oak camo pattern is used by some Russian Forces today.
