I researched under „Hercules and Rough Wear“ but i couldnt found anything similar because of the inner vest. Theyre mostly as yours or with sherpa lining. Pre-war sounds very possible.

Dumb question, but how much value would you estimate for your Type of Hercules coat?
I will post a better pic. It has the standard blue wool lining with a Hercules label. It is pictured in the late 30s Sears catalog. I assume the vest is original? The leather on my jacket is among the best I have handled, a cut above. There have been a couple of others on ebay with no label

Value? Mine is not for sale. $1000 +?
