If anyone is looking for a suit like this, it's sitting on the UK Ebay with less than 2 days to go. The current bid is approx. $44.00 US. (The bid you see at the link is in pounds sterling.)

Not 40s. Woolmark the most obvious giveaway . . .

Nice suit, though.

The Woolmark logo was introduced in the early / mid '60's IIRC.

summat like that.

My wild guess on this suit would be early 1990s.

Good 'old' DAKS, there's no age to it is there. I have a similar off the peg Gieves & Hawkes in the same size that I'll probably sticking up on the bay sometime.

 

[Baron Kurtz]

I for one, would like to see it with the DAKS waistband . . .
