    Pre 65 suit??? Still Learning..

    Not especially, since it has belt loops. Watch pocket on each side of the trousers is interesting. Check underneath the rear trouser seam and under the side seams for a label.

    Here's a draft from '37 with pleated front panels, back pleats, and partial belt.

    Good God in Heaven!

    I must be thinking of another suit, but I can't remember which.

    Good God in Heaven!

    Didn't Marc's brown plus-fours suit have a Hollywood connection as well?

    Good God in Heaven!

    If I could edit, I'd say "baggy plus fours".

    Good God in Heaven!

    Too short for plus fours, but probably fine for breeches.

    Gentlemen, show us what you've made!

    Nice, BK. I especially like the use of vintage buttons, and the wide waistband.

    New Pocket Watch

    No jewels at all. I love these dollar watches, until recently I had two which were my daily wear watches (one needed a clean and the other I accidentally dropped on a hardwood floor! :() Their simple design and robust parts make them pretty tough. Unfortunately, I can't find anyone to repair...

    Largest steam locomotive on Earth to run again!

    I saw the C&O Allegheny at the Henry Ford when I was a kid. Talk about awe inspiring.

    double breasted waist seam jacket

    I've seen it for patch pockets often enough, it was covering the jetted pocket that's new. Learn something every day.

    double breasted waist seam jacket

    The pockets are functional, so an unusual method of sewing?

    double breasted waist seam jacket

    Yes, that's why I figured there was no pocket mouth under it. Very odd.

    double breasted waist seam jacket

    It looks like the flap was put on right sides together, the raw edge sewn, then turned down and stitched across the top. It just doesn't look like a normal pocket finish. I may be wrong, that's just how I read the photos.

    double breasted waist seam jacket

    The pockets look false, the flaps were laid flat on the fronts and stitched down. Also no attempt at pattern matching. Could this be a costume piece from a period drama (an older one, that is)?
