1930s A-1 style British workwear jacket

[Baron Kurtz]

This is made of a heavy-ish lambskin (I think) and was made by Ledux. Anyone heard of them? The early Lightning zipper pegs this in the 1930s. This is about size 40 and will be for sale in the near future, should anyone be interested.

Interesting design-sort of A1-A2 cross breed. The leather looks like goatskin to me.

I had the same zipper on an old leather jacket of mine! Very nice jacket by the way!!! What size?

Just noticed the size, sorry!

Yes, it's the collar design that attracted me to the jacket in the first place. The buttons alerted me to its age. It also has an interesting ventilation design at the armpits which I forgot to photograph, but will endeavour to do so tomorrow.
