Never, and I mean never have I come home from the bar with such a crazy thing. I am going to wear this to HP Lovecraft's grave in a few weeks to perform some mystic, secret rites. I've been missing them on ebay for years. I was hoping to land one for last years trip to Lovecraft's grave but...

So I am the proud new owner of this somewhat lived in, 1930's (?) Irish white linen double breasted suit:
