Riley Dee, those are fantastic. I shudder to think what they would retail for, but considering they're Scabal cashmere of serious construction, perhaps $500+. Too bad they're fully lined so you won't be able to feel the goods when you're wearing them. Down in here in Dixie those things would never make it out of the closet save for one day cold enough every decade or so.
Here's the beginning of an article on Ellis of Edinburgh, well, at least the beginning of it. You have to pay for the full article, but apparently there is an Ellis-Oklahoma connection as the last word in the revealed part of the article so tantalizingly reveals. Please let us know what you find out.
I don't primarily shop for vintage, but I practically live off thrift finds. I have a $2500 Luciano Barbera from Saks suit that is due back from the alterations tailor any day now; I paid $35 for it at a thrift shop about a month ago. The stuff's out there. Persistence, persistence.
