Hi everyone:
Spotted two camel hair coats at a nearby store...wondering how to determine the age of them? They were in great condition. What do I need to look for as far as lining, buttons, etc. Thanks!
Hi everyone:
I was at my local thriftstore yesterday and was checking out all the vintage mens suits and jackets (tons of them). I purchased a few but I put several back not knowing enough about the labels. What are the labels I should look for as far as 1920's-1930's. Or is there a website...
Scotrace:

This coat is gorgeous!! Make me a reasonable offer and it's yours...
Yeah you're right...I have a lovely fitted tuxedo jacket for a women with a skirt...that must go to that...you're a genious! I never would have put them together. Well, I'll have to pick thru those vests I have to match up to this tux. You guys are awesome! :eusa_clap
OK...let's see if we can settle this jacket business once and for all! I did find the pants (by accident) I was checking all the pockets for some cash and felt something in this little back pocket...and inside was the same tag dated 1930 as the jacket (yeah) now to figure out the vest...do you...
I am going to take some more pics of this 1930's jacket and the pants, vest I think go with it. These clothes belonged to two gentlemen...hence the earlier/later clothes. The diplomat was the younger gentlemen but there was Pat's Dad (the Dr.) who would have owned older suits...does this make...
Just a couple pics of one of the Morning Coat suits. 2 from the 50's and
1 from 1944. I will take some pics of the 3 pc. 1930 tux later...trying to pack for Hawaii. Chloe
