It's a good one. Look at that wonderful shade of blue. Dare to make an offer?

That is a nice looking suit, but the lapels and the Harris tweed label looks newer than 1950s to me. I'm no expert, but I'd guess 1970s. Can any experts weigh in on the age of this suit?

Looks right to me. Gorgeous suit!

 

[Paul Roerich]

I'd say 1950s. Made with older traditional Canadian customers in mind.

I bet they'd accept $450 in a New York min ute.

 

[Baron Kurtz]

yes, that really is a glorious suit.

Definitely a '40s/'50s Harris tweed. I have a WWII era harris tweed jacket with the label similar to that one, except mine has the "Copyright 1937" portion. Another clue are the vertical pockets and tiny belt loops.

 

[Baron Kurtz]

hmm, yes. Well the main clue is absolutely everything about the suit …
