MG Tschako Help

Hello, I would REALLY appreciate some help with this!! I have a Dewat Maxim MG-08 and would like to set up a display/impression to go with it. I am interested to know what types of Tschakos were worn by MG Troops. Would they be all black leather, or a mixture of brown leather and grey green wool? Anyone with original period photos or Tschakos in Collections that they would like to share would be helpful as well. Thank you to those who share their Valuable Knowledge! :)
 
Dedicated Maschinengewehr Abteilungen wore Tschakos of Green felt and Brown leather. I have a nice reproduction Garde Offizier MGA Tschako for sale. Feel free to PM if interested.

Chas.
