Thanks for the info, much appreciated.

Perhaps part of some kind of a collection made for some German vendor? Original flight jackets maybe: https://www.original-flightjackets.com/

A great deal for the price anyways.

The photos of the Type III on that website are some of the best I have seen. All their photos look good!

I was just looking at the photos and literally wanted to post the same thing. There's like no doubt that they've made the finest Type-3 on the market. It's amazing how well it fits, especially the profile pic.

$400 with offer option. Steep, but looks great. Not my size.

A Rich Sher MC. Two sellers trying to sell the same jacket from Yahoo Auction JP on ebay? A very goodf price on Yahoo Auction JP but it seems the seller at Yahoo Auction JP has withdrawn the jacket in March due to lack of interest.

This is the only JC Penney clone of the Hercules I have ever seen. No idea they did this. I would really like to see some 30s Penneys catalogs. I go by JC Penneys birth place in Missouri when I go to visit my son in KC. I will have to stop some day.

I never knew it existed either, but it makes sense that it does.

The price is lowered to €342 (offers welcomed).

I contacted the seller for the measurements and got a quick reply:

Sleeves: approx. 67 cm
Pit to pit: 64 cm
Back: 60 cm
Shoulders: 50 cm

Unfortunately too short for me. Someone grab a bargain!

Good. Excellent move. Man, so sad seeing those bids... Do they really hope the ending bid is going to be less than that BIN? Dream on, buddy.
