    I'm very glad to say that these 2 both now belong to me. The blue DB is a belted back also.

    Yes you do! And this belted-back suit is a three-piece: jacket, pants and vest!

    I like how this thread is going chaps. Not much talk, just show the suits. maybe we could all agree that one person will give kudos to a suit, and the rest are included by implication. That should help to keep the chit-chat down and the pic count up!

    A very nice belted back number in my favourite 2 button notch lapel style 3 piece. This one, IIRC, has 1936 union labels in it:

    Those are beautiful suits! Are there any vintage suits in Omar the tent maker size? (60 size jacket, 56x30 pant). Surely there where big men in the 30s and beyond! Also where can I find some vintage hats etc?

    In my 25 years of vintage-ing on the West Coast, I have never come across any vintage (pre-1970s) suit or sportcoat in a size 60, with 56" pants. Unfortunately.
