One size.  By Karl Kettl.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAccording to \"Resident Kraut\" on Reddit, (where I posted the cape on the subreddit: Military Collecting):\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Karl Kettl Was a tailor for traditional \"Trachten\" Clothes.  His shop was on the Rosenstrabe in Tegernsee, Bavaria, Germany.  It is \u003cbr\u003ea civilian Cloak and likely much younger than WW1 or WW2.  I'd say mid- 50s.  Here is a postcard from 1958 that shows his shop.  It is the one in the middle, with the woman looking in the window.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI did follow the link and see the shop front.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI have had this piece dry cleaned and it is in great condition.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFEATURES:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePointy hood that is detachable- it buttons into place.  \u003cbr\u003eInteresting collar tab closure at front of neck.\u003cbr\u003eDark green cloak has contrasting bright green collar as seen in photo.\u003cbr\u003eThere is a hook also found so it may have one time had some sort of trim.\u003cbr\u003eTextured wool.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCarved Horn buttons.
