1960s One-Star Schott Perfecto

Hello, everyone. New member here - thought I'd make my first post something other members might benefit from.

I'm selling a 1960s (I believe) Schott Perfecto, model 615. They don't make em like this anymore, and it still has miles to go; just doesn't seem to fit my style these days.

The jacket is made of handcut steerhide with what I believe is the original quilted nylon lining in perfect condition. One star is missing from the right shoulder, as are three of the original belt loops, which is the condition I bought it in. Other than that, it's in great shape - no holes, tears, etc. It has some patina, but I feel that just adds to a jacket's overall appeal.

I'm asking $150, given its wear. Quite frankly, I'm more in need of a decent hat at the moment, so if anyone is willing to trade a dark brown, blue, or grey Fedora in a size 7 3/8 or 7 1/2, I'll give them the jacket for free minus shipping.

Thanks for looking!

Beautiful Perfecto! Had no idea they offered this model so early on. Killer deal in any case.

Bump. I feel that $100 + shipping (or a trade) is a fair price for this jacket. The generic One-Star steerhide model retails for around $720 US, and it doesn't have half the panache of this one.

Forgot to add measurements:

Armpit-to-armpit: 20"
Sleeve length from armpit: 16"
Shoulders: 18.75"
Length from bottom of collar: 23.5"

Would still prefer a trade, if possible.
