Can anyone figure out what era this Harris Tweed sport jacket is from?

I recently bought this Harris Tweed sport jacket. Upon doing research I've only found a similar Harris Tweed tag in a 1942 Life Magazine. The tag has a copyright of 1937. The style looks late '30s to '40s to me. Does anyone know how to identify the era's of Harris Tweed jackets?

Dating the American Harris labels is kind of hard, due to the lack of a serial number on the label. I'd say that this is no earlier than 1940, due to the line (goes through the cross on the orb), that i believe first appeared in the 40s.

Judging by style, 1942 sounds about right. Within a range of years around there would be a good guess.

Lovely jacket, by the way.

I would also date it around mid 40's looking at the label.

Thanks for the comments. I thought it had a '40s style to it.

Going by the lapels and the style I'd say 40s as well... Check out Bogart films from the era.
