Don't know when exacly this jacket dates from. It has either a 1936 or a 1939 union tag but I just can't tell.

This is a great looking jacket made of attractive medium weight tweed. It has a 3-button front rolled to the middle button and is ventless. Patch pockets throughout. All buttons are present, jacket is skeleton lined.

A few issues with this jacket: (1.) the right skirt pocket has a moth hole, (2.) a moth hole in the left shoulder and (3.) there is a darker area on the left shoulder. The dark spot appears to be a stain and could possibly come out with a gentle cleaning. The moth holes could easily be patched.

Size:
arm- 26"
pit to pit- 23"
length- 32"
shoulders- 20"

Roughly a 40R.
