This Monarch came in excellent condition, the steerhide is the thick kind. Original lining was soiled so I had Johnson relined with satin quilt in a purple-ish color, very nice. Pockets are new to. I sent Johnson a NOS brass Talon for front zipper. It’s tagged 40, and fits me like a second skin but I can use two more inches at chest. Typical to Monarch, French seams throughout.
Shoulder seams: 17.5” Pit 21” Sleeves with cuff 25” Back 24.5 perfect for a 38 or 40 chest. Forgot to mention, all knits are new too
Beautiful jacket. (Would you mind sharing where you had your jacket relined? I own a vintage RRL that needs it badly.)
