    Another new peacoat. I think I have a problem.

    It gets cold enough for them from about December - mid February. If I manage to get the WW1 there's no way I would wear it. That one will just be to look at. The rest, I wear.

    I have found one in good condition, and in my size. I just have to convince my wife to let me buy it. I don't think it's going anywhere anytime soon. They are asking around $1500 for it.

    Another new peacoat. I think I have a problem.

    The only coat I'm really interested in now is a WW1 example. I already have three of the eight button coats, a '49, a '62 and one from sometime after '62, which is plenty of the eight button models. I have two of the ten button models in case something happens to one, I have a backup ready and...

    Another new peacoat. I think I have a problem.

    Found another deal on a WW2 peacoat that I just couldn't pass up. I'm starting to amass a small "collection" of these things. I'm afraid my wife is going to set up an intervention soon. Well, here it is. I hope I did the pictures right.

    My First WW2 Peacoat

    Thanks guys. It is as close to mint as I'll ever see, I'm sure. No stencil on the liner or anything. Only imperfections are two very small spots in the upper back that appear to be mothing, but they are both smaller than a dime in diameter. Now I just hope it fits. I work out of town and my wife...

    My First WW2 Peacoat

    Hello everyone. I'm new here and this is my first post. I have owned a few peacoats from the 50s & 60s (I'm hung up on the corduroy lined pockets) for several years now, but I recently bought my first WW2 era peacoat. It appears, to me, to be in very good condition, especially for the price I...
