Welcome to part 4 of my blowout sale. Whittling down what I have left from years of stockpiling/collecting for a vintage store that never happened. While the big majority of what I had is gone now, I still have some decent items and some not so decent but, still cool items. I've tried to price everything right. Make me an offer on anything. There are multiple pics of everything, just can't fit them all so please check the links.
PayPal is preferred but, I will do Money Orders. Shipping will be via USPS based on weight of package and zip or country. Feel free to ask how much shipping will be.
Call "Dibs" for anything you want and then PM me. Please be sure you want it before calling dibs.

OK, first up is a late 30's to mid 40's, brown double breasted suit. Trousers are double pleated with fob pocket. The original zipper looks to have been replaced at some point, perhaps in the 50's as it is a metal Conmar zipper. Condition is very good. There is one tiny hole on the left sleeve, about 8 inches from top of shoulder and a tiny hole at right side front, about 5 inches from hem and 4 inches from bottom button hole (this cannot be seen when coat is properly buttoned). The center seam and the side seams on jacket have been let out to accomodate someone's weight gain. I'd guess this to be a 38 short, possibly 39.
MEASUREMENTS: Jacket - Chest (laid flat and measured pit to pit) is 42 inches, sleeve length (from top of shoulder seam to cuff bottom) is 22 1/2 (could let out about 1 1/2"), back length (from top of neck, straight down center seam to hem) is 30 inches. Trousers - Waist is 32 (could be let out 2 1/2"), outseam (from top of waistband to cuff bottom) is 39 5/8 (cuffs are 1 3/4" and there's about 1" of material turned under).
SOLD

Next up is a black with pink flecks Van Heusen sports shirt. Classic mid 50's style and lightweight, rayon fabric. Condition is very good. It is tagged a size Medium.
MEASUREMENTS:Chest (laid flat and measured pit to pit) is 44 inches. Sleeve length (from top of shoulder seam to cuff bottom) is 24 1/4 inches. Back length (from top of neck, straight down to hem) is 27 1/2 inches.
PRICE $20

Next is a pair of "Ben Hogan Slacks" with built-in half belt and Hollywood waist. Circa mid 50's. The belt has 3 snap positions on each side for adjustment. They are double pleated and have a Talon zipper and slide top closure. The material is lightweight, soft and kind of a rusty brown color with darker colored specks/nubs. Plenty of wear left. Back pocket button is missing however, I'll include a period correct button to be sewn on. The buckle needs to be polished. There is a spot on each leg where it looks like the fabric may have been caught on something. One can only guess from the label that these were worn while golfing so maybe they were snagged in the brush. See pics. Somebody did a poor job taking in the waist so there's only half of a "V notch" back there, needs to be redone correctly.
MEASUREMENTS:Waist is 31 1/2 (could be let out 2 inches), outseam (from top of waistband to cuff bottom) is 40 3/4 inches (cuffs are 1 1/2" and there's about 1 1/2" of material turned under).
PRICE $20

And lastly for the part 4 sale is a "Roos Bros." snowflake ski sweater. Probably 40's, possibly early 50's. It is navy blue and white. There are a couple minor pulls here and there and one small repair spot on the waistband. Ever so slight discolor on the white snowflake just below front collar (see pic).
MEASUREMENTS:Chest (unstretched from pit to pit) is 36 inches. Sleeve length is 22 inches. Back length is 21 3/4 inches.
PRICE $14

Trousers and sweater are SOLD.

Nobody's interested in the Van Heusen shirt. It's black with pink flecks. You could probably wear it with just about every trouser in your closet. Don't make me put this on ebay. LOL.
