Is the suit really that old? I'm no expert, and please correct me if I'm wrong, but between the two button cuffs, the lapels, and the fact that it's a sack jacket, I'd have guessed late 1960s.

That's definitely authentic '20s/'30s. 2 button cuffs were common in the '20s and '30s (I have a 1926 dated suit with 2 button cuffs), the material and cut of the suit, and don't forget the pants, all point towards pre-WWII.
