Here is a very nice B-15A flight jacket made by Werber in a nice big size. There are a few small blemishes, but overall in great shape. 'Army Air Forces' roundels are still faintly visible on left shoulder, and starkly visible inside of jacket flap. If you look at it in just the right light you can see where the wartime owner had his name tag and squadron patch sewn onto it, but generally speaking the tiny holes are invisible. The zipper works fine, and the cuffs and waistline are all original. The Mouton collar is one of the most beautiful I've seen. I bought this a couple years ago on this forum and am only selling because I'm just a bit too tall for it at 6'3". $350 plus shipping from the U.S. I always am willing to listen to reasonable offers.
