This is a fantastic vintage captains sweater in the classic seafaring style. Item dates to circa 1930s and is in superb condition. Features a generous boat neck collar, wide ribbed waist, ribbed cuffs, thick warm winter weave.
Color is Navy blue. Label reads "100% Wool". Maker identified as "Indian - Goodman Knitting Co. Boston".
Apart from very light shelf wear, this sweater has no notable defects. Such a great piece in rare condition. The most significant item of note is slight musty smell from storage. So have it dry cleaned, air it out, and you've got yourself a gem of a vintage sweater.
