This is wonderful! Made for The English Shop of Princeton, one of the Big Five purveyors of Ivy Style clothes in Princeton during the Golden Era (the others being Langrock, Hilton, Ballot, The Princeton Clothing Co), this lovely jacket was made by H. Freeman, one of the great traditional American clothiers. The tweed is beautiful--a lovely base in complementary browns with windowpane overchecking in sky blue and Royal blue. Perfect for Spring's cooler days! It has a very natural shoulder.
This is cut as a 3/2 sack, and it has a lovely lapel roll. It appears to be fully canvassed, and is half-lined. It features three button cuffs and a single centre vent. It was, of course, Made in the USA--just down the road from Princeton in Philadelphia, since this is a H. Freeman jacket! Apart from some loose stitching in the vent--which I'll have repaired--it's in excellent condition.
Asking just $49, or offer, boxed and shipped in the USA.
Measurements:
Chest: 20 1/4
Sleeve: 23 (+2)
Shoulder: 17 3/4
Length: 29 1/4
