RAF 1930 pattern Sidcot flying suit collar, S5

'Suits, Flying, 1930 pattern, collars, fur, Type A'.  Stores reference 22c/300.  Size 5.  Removable collar used with the 1930 pattern 'Battle Of Britain' flying suit.  This example has good dense light cream/off-white coloured fur on the same rubberised cotton backing from which the suit is manufactured.  With Air Ministry Crown, A.I.D., size marks and clear 1941 date.  The sizing of these collars is not an exact science and sometimes collars with the same markings differ in size.  In our experience, most collars will fit at least one size either way of that indicated.  This will also fit the 1940 and 1941 pattern suits.  Shows moderate use with soiling and light moulting at the edge of the fur but the elastics at each side remain good.  Stock code S21846.
