FS: Kools' jackets

[kools]

Here are some NICE ones that don't fit me...otherwise they would stay in my closet. Some items I am listed here didn't sell on the bay; I attribute that more to my poor photography skills than the items themselves.

First, a 1950s "Hollywood" style leisure jacket. "Sun Life, created by the makers of Stratojac". Color is beige; with patch pockets, front pleating, shoulder padding, fully lined, cool stitching. Excellent condition inside & out!!! I HATE TO SEE THIS ONE GO! I'd trade it for one like it that fits in a heartbeat! $75 plus shipping.

Measurements:
pit-to-pit 20"
shoulder-cuff 25"
shoulder-shoulder 19"
overall length 32"

Next, a 1950s gabardine sport coat. Color is chocolate brown. Very good condition. The only flaws include pulling on one lapel and looseness on inside lining near one sleeve. Very wearable; no holes or stains. $20 plus shipping.

Measurements:
pit to pit 20"
shoulder to cuff 25"
shoulder to shoulder 18.5"
overall length: 30.5"

Next is a 1940s (1939 union tag) suit jacket with matching vest. Black wool (flash photo makes it look gray, but it's certainly black to my eye). Peaked lapels!!! Like new condition; no holes, pulls, stains, etc!!! $35 plus shipping.

Jacket Measurements:
pit to pit 21"
shoulder to cuff 26"
shoulder to shoulder 18.5"
overall length: 30.5"

Kools,

I love the hollywood jacket. How are you measuring the shoulders? On the back from seam to seam, or all the way across to the edge of the shoulders?

 

[kools]

Hey Repeat,
I don't know where I got 19" from; you can see here 18" on the back from seam to seam.

Next is a 1940s (1939 union tag) suit jacket with matching vest.

Man, I wish that suit had its trousers!

Uh... this is officially my size! Are you willing to hold it for me for a while? I'm currently in the process of trying to sell my guitar and amp and I would love to have this! If you are in a hurry to get rid of it, no worries, but I have envied this jacket for a very long time! I remember you posted a photo of yourself wearing it ages ago!

Mister Clicks...I can wait for a lounger like you. I, like you are planning, just sold off a guitar and amp...and I've already spent most of the proceeds on clothes & shoes. We can work this out via PM...but I will take this one off the blocks for you.

And yes, I did post myself wearing the jacket once. I think I only wore it twice. It's about 2" too small in the chest for me, but it was so cool that I tried to get away with it.

Black jacket & vest SOLD.
