FREE! VINTAGE 1960s PBM HARRIS TWEED 3/2 SACK JACKET

Harris tweed is a staple of Ivy Style, as are--obviously--3/2 sack jackets, and so it is surprising how rare 3/2 sack jackets in Harris Tweed are. But here's one!
Likely made in the 1960s this is a classic 3/2 sack jacket--a lovely lapel roll, a single center vent, and three button cuffs. It is half-lined. The Harris Tweed that this is cut from is lovely--beautiful shades of mossy greens, in a wonderful heathery mix.
This was Union Made in the USA by PBM of Philadelphia..... so it was made in Philadelphia, as this was where PBM made all of their clothes!
The jacket has some minor issues. It has a rip on one elbow--an easy fix with an elbow patch--and a small hole in the back by the vent which could easily be ignored. It also has a couple of small holes under one pocket. The lining is coming loose under one arm--a very, very easy fix, this. It could also use a dry clean to freshen it up.
These are all easy fixes... and since this is FREE worth doing--just send me $15 to cover shipping anywhere in the USA!
