WTB: 1930's Suit

[splintercellsz]

I am looking to buy a 1930's - 1940's Suit. Preferably Brown, but any other color will be considered.

My budget is preferably below $200 dollars shipped; but if you like, I can trade some 1950's suits, as well as some cash, if you pick that route.

Measurements:
Well, for me, I am a tall, skinny build.

-- Around 6 Feet Tall
-- My suit size is unknown, but I can fit anywhere from a 36-42 (Pretty neat, huh?)
-- My chest is 20 on the front (allows some room)
-- My regular jeans are a W31 L34, but my modern trousers are: 32x32 and work just as well (again, I can fit a lot of different sizes, oddly.)
-- My sleeves could be anywhere from 22½ to 25

Thanks for looking,

Justin

I added info. Sorry about jumping ahead like that!

I'd love to have a suit that would fit, but if not, I am fine with it (I mainy want to wear the suit, but I am also wanting to build up my collection to create a display type ordeal for my old Highschool History Teachers Great Depression unit, to show the kids what people wore and let them see it in color, instead of in a book).

Hello splintercellsz,
sorry for the standard advice, but: Ebay is your best friend here. With a little bit of luck, you might be able to grab some fantastic suits for rather small prices. Just an example:

I just bought an fantastic three-piece suit for 50 bucks. Also, etsy could be a good source for thirties suits.
Good luck
