Very nice collection. I have no parkas to post, only flight jackets and field jackets--M-65 I think they are. Stuff that was issued to me.
Great lookin stuff. Never seen in internal pocket on the lining of the M-1948 before. How do you find them all in such mint condition?
I own 4 or so M-51's from my 'mod' days, not that I had a scooter. Do love them though. It's difficult to find a good size one for a small guy though, I'm 5ft7 so some of the 'smalls' swamp me.
I am on the market for a B-9 or B-11 parka ideally with alpaca lining in a 36 though if anyone has ones.

I do like those late N-2Bs, I've a light weight lined '93 & it gets a lot of wear. Yours looks great with the wolf trim, I had a M-65 Parka re-trimmed in wolf & it turned out great.
I had an M-51 in my 'Mod' days (still have two scooters) & unfortunately painted 'King Kurt' on the back and then used it whilst doing oil changes (think it probably fell apart at some stage).
Currently own a nice M-65 with wolf trim for walking the dogs
