//SOLD//Stunning 1930s/40s sportscoat Size 42-43//SOLD//

[Baron Kurtz]

Marc, your PM box is not accepting.

Well. This is a fabric you don't see every day in any size. And this one's size 42-43, depending how snug you like to wear 'em. A couple of guys have first dibs on this through my attempts to place it with people whose size I know. The jacket is bespoke, and is dated rather mysteriously: 2/18/6. I think the "6" must be 1946, due to the styling, but who knows.

Chest: 23"
Shoulders: 20" and heavy padded
Arm: 25"
Length: 30"

Price: £65, shipping extra.

Horn buttons, i think.

Note self-fabric armpit guards.

Jetted pockets.

p.s. the little dark spots on the long shots are flocking, not moth holes.

Baron, I think I'm a day late and a dollar short on this incredible piece, but could you keep me in mind for anything similar?

 

[Baron Kurtz]

Will do. I think i have something similar in the back of a closet somewhere, but not this nice, IIRC. I think the other one's Donegal tweed, and i think it's about this size - it's too big for me at least, but that's not hard bu it might be a bit smaller.

Let me dig around a bit.

Is this jacket spoken for? 'Cause I am interested...

 

[Baron Kurtz]

There is a list. You're at the bottom, i'm afraid, and it's quite long now. I'm pretty sure someone on the list will snap him up …

Next time, buddy.

That's a fantastic weave. Yet another fabric that reveals the prehistory of Dashing Tweeds's revisionism.

 

[Feraud]

Sure. No problem.

Just out of interest, that isn't Ceemo tweed, is it? From the pics it looks to have something a bit extra going on in the cloth - but I think Ceemo was made in the 60s, so probably not.

 

[Baron Kurtz]

This is sold gents, thanks for the interest. I think I have another in about this size. Let me hunt around a bit, and keep checking back to the classifieds to see if i find it.
