FS: fantastic '40s brown DB suit

[thunderw21]

In good condition. Attractive heavy weight chocolate brown gabardine material. It has a '39 union tag and I date this suit from the early to mid-1940s. The perfect Second World War era suit. Has a very old cleaning tag on the right arm. Trouser fly zipper works well.

I can only find a single flaw: a small (pinhead size) hole in the left upper back (see second pic). This could be repaired fairly easily.

Measurements

Jacket:
Roughly 38R
Arms- 25.5", 2" to let down
Length- 31"
Shoulders- 18.5"
Pit to pit- 21"

Trousers:
Waist- 32" with a good 3" to let out in the back seam
Inseam- 31.5", none to let down, the 1.75" cuffs could be sacrificed (faux cuff for appearance) for a total possible inseam length of 35"
Rise- 13.5" (!!!!!!)



Note: the shiny areas in these photos are from the flash and do not exist on the material. Also, the material is darker than shown in these photos. It is such a difficult suit to photograph and these images don't do this suit justice.

This is a gorgeous suit and the heavy material drapes beautifully.

This is stupid. This should be sold... is everyone in the States no smaller than a 44R these days? Crimeny.

If I wore DB suits Id go after this. That and if it was a 36R
