Late 1940s or early 1950s British 'Boldlook/Wideboy' blue DB suit

Classic late 1940s early 1950s British version of Bold Look double breasted suit. Fabric is an amazing blue with a small square pattern where the blue alternates with red, and other colors. The jacket also has a quilted/padded chest like you see on some morning coats. Label has been cut away, looks like "W. Evans and Sons" or something.
Jacket: chest 23.5; sleeve 26, length 30, shoulders, 18
Trousers: inseam 31 (1.5 hem), waist measured flat 19.5 (39 total)
This was wonderful trousers with button fly, double forward pleats, coin pocket with flap, and side zip waist adjusters. Suspender/brace buttons. I had to replace the old elastic shirt stays (the rubber had fallen apart).

Price: $200 including shipping in US, $230 international
