Double breasted long overcoat in 22 oz black Melton wool with peaked lapels.

St. Michael by Marks and Spencer. Fits a 40" chest roomily over a suit and will be around mid-calf length on a man six feet tall. Make like Johnny Depp (but don't rob banks...). Excellent condition, no noticeable wear.

Asking 25 GBP, buyer to pay shipping. It's heavy...
PM me for measurements and photographs.

Photos amd measurements

As I have had a number of PMs, here are some photos and measurements.

Somehow the photpraphic genius with I have with a pre-war roll-film camera deserts me when I use a borrowed digital (or whatever they are called). It's hard to show detail of a black woollen coat, so I have had to 'burn' the last shot of the collar - it's nowhere near that light in colour. The front and back shots (!) give a better idea.

Approximate measurements laid flat as follows:
Armpit to armpit = 22"
'Tailor's arm' (nape to cuff) = 35"
Outer arm (shoulder to cuff) = 25"
Back length (nape to hem) = 45"

It is a 2X6 button fastening and is in very good condition inside and out. It is form the better end of the M&S range and shows some nice touches, such as the stitching to the lapels.

Please PM me with follow-up interest.
