I'm moving this one along because it's not a good fit, and I'm looking to pull together funds to buy a wearable original sz. 44 A-2 at some point. This one is absolutely in wearable condition, and the goatskin is still robust, as is typical of goatskin. The zipper is also still robust. The jacket evidently underwent refurbishment at an Air Force supply depot because it's been re-dyed, it has a Crown zipper (18091s all had Talons), and an Air Force (not AAF) roundel. At some point along the way, somebody evidently replaced the lining around the collar. Currently on sale on eBay for $1900, but here it’s $1400 paypal f&f shipped in CONUS.
Measurements, taken on a hard surface:
Armpit to Armpit: 22.5 inches / 57.2 cm
Shoulders: 18.5 inches / 47 cm
Back: 24.25 inches / 61.6 cm
Sleeves: 24.5 inches / 62.2 cm (I measured both following the curve and straight down - the result was the same)
