Greek Tornister update

The Greek 1938 Tornister I've been getting reproduced is almost ready. There are still a few fine details to improve then I can get a dozen made for the first order. 

Slight details need to be refined here and we're ready to go. 

These last three photos give a good comparison. We must remember that eighty years ago the originals were new.

And how dark leather gets with time!

Greek Tornister WWII

Time to start another blog! Stay tuned as I begin to preresent a new reproduction of the Second World War Greek Tourister backpack. We are in the process of refining details.

Now some weeks later here is an update on prototype II: we've matched the detailing to the preferred original. There will still be a few changes to come. 

This is all for an order from some Greek WWII reenactors. This tornister they want matches 200,000 made by the Germans for the Greek army in 1938. If the pace of  their product development had been as slow as ours there never would have been a war. Makes me wonder if wars are actually created by ambitious industrialists who hope to stay home for the war effort and reap a big profit. 

These will be for sale soon. Contact me at timothyjsoper@gmail.com if you're interested in being a part of the first order. Price will be posted soon... Also variations are possible. 

I'm having trouble posting now, several months later. Check my Etsy site:
