23) ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL! Paul Stuart sweater in wonderfully luxurious alpaca. Chest: 24; Sleeve: 33 1/2; Length: 25 3/4. Excellent condition. Asking just $35.











24) Orvis zip-front sweater vest in cashmere and merino wool with leather trim. A lovely, rugged sweater, this is in very Good condition as it has a couple of readily-removeable surface marks in white, as shown. Asking just $23. Chest: 21; Sleeve: 32 1/4; Length: 26.





25) LLB's Norwegian sweater has become an Ivy icon. Rugged, durable, and beautiful, these were first sold by LLBean in 1965. Made in Norway, the original sweaters were a blend of 80% wool and 20% rayon, and were close to the Platonic Form of the casual sweater, and an epitome of Ivy Style through the 1980s. Unfortunately, in 1991 Bean decided to start having these made in China--with disastrous results. The sweater was then withdrawn from sale... until it was reintroduced in 2009. Alas, the new sweater was shaped differently to the old, had a more constricting neckline, and was all-wool. THIS sweater is one of the originals--and is in excellent condition! Tagged a Large-Tall, this was made in Norway, and measures: Chest: 24; Sleeve: 34 1/2; Length: 26 1/2. Asking just $38, or offer.







26) BEAUTIFUL Fair Isle knit sweater vest from Ralph Lauren. Hand knit from 65% camel hair, 20% wool, and 15% silk, this beautiful sweater would be absolutely perfect under a tweed jacket for that 1930s - 1940s look. It has a little bit of loose stitching on one underarm, but that could readily be ignored. Size L, this measures: Chest: 20 1/2; Length: 24. (This will fit around a 40 chest well). Asking just $30, or offer.
