1930's brown herringbone DB overcoat

[GoldenEraFan]

Listed as '50s but that high button stance says '30s to me.

Yes I agree 1930s. Wonderful coat!

 

[PADDY]

Gorgeous coat. Too small for me...alas

 

[Metatron]

Sold for $60!!
US Ebay is the way to go apparently, even with the extra postage cost.

Listed incorrectly with a low BIN price. Good deal.

 

[HardBoiledMarlowe]

Did someone here buy it?

 

[Fastuni]

Coats sometimes sell at quite low prices - but in this case I'd partly attribute it to the small size.
22.5 inches sleeves for an overcoat are very short.

Us eBay has some good deals sometimes. I got my late 20s cream flannel collegiate style trousers for $9.00.

 

[HardBoiledMarlowe]

I agree. Overcoats don't usually fetch much unless they have especially nice fabric and/or details. Plain ones can be purchased for next to nothing. I didn't notice the sleeve measurement - that isshort.

 

[PADDY]

Yes - nice coat, but as I said, too small for me.

Advice to UK/US ebayers. If you do have a good chum you can trust on either side of the Atlantic, then 'sometimes' that can be an option when sellers don't sell to individuals across the pond. Also it 'can' save on postage and other incidental costs. Friends are 'good' to have folks!
