This looks like another RoughWear.......... you don't see these this come up too close together like the one previously posted and this one. The cuffs, the lining, the script font, the colors of the label, and hide quality are all very RoughWear-esque. The Horsehide Label is different though.......... This one was made for JC Penny .... I could be wrong but it seems like a RoughWear,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, @handymike @tmitchell59 @RiteStuffBryan

I’d say it probably is, the cuffs too are the ‘30s Hercules ones, this is a nice sort of cross between a car coat and the Herc double-breasted style:

I have seen several JC Penny jackets in a barnstormer look with a label that says manufactured by Sterling. I do not have a pictured of this label at the moment. The lovely "'skiing label" One of the nicest labels, from mid to late 30s.

I believe several companies made these, Monarch, Roughwear, I would think all the big makers had some spin on this.

The single breast styling will bring money. I thought about this one, but these jackets are boats. I do like the look.

I hopefully have this coming in the mail tomorrow or Wed. I will be able to date this jacket by the Talon zipper, probably 1939
