Do youknow anything about star sportswear ?
I'm guessing this was made in the 1950s from the details like the stitching on the shoulder straps and button on the collar , but I'd be intrested to find out more

A lot of info on here I’d recommend doing a search. But high level, they were a manufacturer out of Lynn Mass. had contracts with the government to make ww2 a-2 jackets among others. They made jackets under their own label known as Kurland as well as manufacturing jackets for other labels like Windward by Montgomery Ward, Sportclad by JC Penney etc... Your jacket could have had any of those labels. This one with the wool liner is late 40’s. The main zipper on yours is a replacement and the belt is missing. These are very nice jackets.
