Thanks Stefan.

A couple of gorgeous hats. It would be a tough choice, but I think you made the right one.

Don't grow up, it's overrated.

Thanks Bob. I think there was a period in the late '30s and early 40s when color was thought of as a good thing in an overcoat.

Thanks D. The coat is a Kuppenheimer and the fabric is one they called Valgora. It's a blend of alpaca, baby mohair and wool. The union tag has a 1939 date so it was made between then and 1949. I suspect pre-war. It's a relatively loosely cut half belt.

Glad you like it D. I've not seen another like it in my years of thrifting. Wish I would run would.

Michael
