On Hiatus. Really. Or Not.

Beautiful coat, BK, sorry I missed this auction. What makes you think it was older than listed?

Pretty much everything, but especially the labels, liner material, and lapel cut. They didn't do them quite like that in the 60s!

I can't believe that wasn't snapped up for £25.

Listed without specifying a date, man. Most people, like me, narrow results by date. have a look next time - the very largest date category is "not specified".

I really should spend more time searching for those items where the date is unspecified. It's just that i often lack the patience to trawl thought too many page of old tat.

Here're a couple more size 44 that ended yesterday. Both achieved the huge sum of £26 each. Both are from Jackson.

Oh yeah, you asked me about the "L" on the Jackson label on the cut down overcoat I got from Ben. Well, I'm now pretty sure that that "L" is a store code. Maybe London. Here're the labels from those two above. Maybe "G" = Glasgow or whatever, and LLRM I'm pretty sure must be somewhere in Wales, though there are a coupla Llan's in the North of Scotland …

Excellent. That's a really useful thing to know. It will be interesting trying to decode those.

I can't believe how cheap those other overcoats were. Some lucky people are getting real bargains at the moment.
