    Gorgeous 1957 bespoke 3-piece suit by Jones Chalk & Dawson.

    Great suit tailored by Jones Chalk & Dawson, dated 1957.

    Absolutely gorgeous fabric, beautiful colors. Working buttons on the sleeves. Fishtail pants with button fly and suspender buttons.

    Even though it's from the late 50's I'd die to buy this suit. Ah well, the pants...

    They're asking a pretty penny for it but I think it's well worth the money.

    Fabulous quality, but sadly not for me at a 37" chest...

    What's that odd bump at the knee of the trousers?
    Stripped of the cunning artifices of the tailor, and standing forth in the garb of Eden - what a sorry set of round-shouldered, spindle-shanked, crane-necked varlets would civilized men appear. ~ Herman Melville

    I don't know. Can't really come from the knees - unless the prior owner's legs bend sideways...

    Possible. Maybe it's the hanger. With that fishtail the pants don't really hang level.
