Richman Brothers Jacket

Hi, Here are some photo's of recent Jacket i acquired a few weeks ago, it cost me £14...bargain!!. I think its 1940s, can any of you experts out there verify that?
I believe Richman Bros where very big in the states for mens wear in the 30s / 40s.
They where based in Cleveland.

We had a conservative menswear store in Melbourne that made jackets cut like that in the 1970's.

Outstanding find Michael, I would say 1940s. Looks great with that tie too.

Cheers! Benny, glad you like it, i believe it was part of a suit but sadly trousers long gone. Shame.

Richman Brothers had a presence in New Orleans on Canal Street into the '70s, I think. Anyway, sharp-looking jacket!
