I have a rather interesting 1920's suit up for sale in the classifieds, it has some moth damage, I'm not sure if it can be repaired, but it can still be used as a pattern.

Here's two more fancy / jazzy ones from the 1921 edition, the Jazking and the Buddy (Buddy doesn't look so happy with his suit):

The jacket to the very left is interesting with its very suppressed waist and very high buttons

That's what I suspected, the zipper is definitely 50's, but I could hope it had been added. The leg opening is also a little much, and the size is a little larger than the jacket. The color matches well, but I might make a separate listing. It is a very lovely jacket and vest nonetheless. I'm not certain if the moth damage can be repaired.
