Oh hell yeah Terry!
I love the collar and overall Peacoat vibe.
It looks like a longhaired wool. Love the changeup from typical red/black plaids that are so typical.
Is this jacket profiled with specs in any other threads?
Outstanding!!

Re Gamma: But were people significantly anotomically different when that jacket was made? Who had arms long enough for those sleeves but liked their hand warmers at nipple height?

Apparently the fit was right for someone in the early 1950s. I believe the jacket would have been custom made. People were shorter and wore high rise trousers.
