For Sale - a Willis & Geiger M-422A tagged 38.

This jacket is in beautiful, clean and well patinated condition (undamaged shell and knits).

The collar appears to be mink and was presumably modified by the original owner - the work was undertaken well using the original stitch holes.

The jacket is named to BP Nabors USN. Alan Daly (Persimmon) kindly chased the details:

VB-94 commissioned with Lt. B. P. Nabors, USNR, as. Acting Commanding Officer. Lt . Comdr. C. H. Master', Jr. , USNR, assumed command of. VB-94. Ten (10) ...

S. W Vejtasa, USN, was commissioned 15 November 1944 - Carrier Air ... with Lt B P Nabors, USNR, acting squadron commander 16 November 1944 - Lt.
Nabors Industries, Inc.

The dimensions of the jacket are:

Pit to pit: 21"
Sleeves: 24"
Front length: 22"
Shoulder: 18".

I'm selling this on behalf of a friend. The owner is looking for £550 plus postage (will ship internationally).

Please PM me if interested.

Thanks

Ian
