For the lizards in the lounge, when did the 4x1 double breasted jacket begin to be acceptable, common wear? An unscientific review of 1940s movies suggests 4x2 was already pretty common, with some 4x1, but what are others' thoughts?
Similar question, when did brass and other metal buttons first become acceptable on sports coats as blazers? I have seen some photo evidence of brass-buttoned blue blazers on English schoolboys in the 30s, but more interested in their acceptance outside the school crowd and in the U.S.
