I would like your opinion please.

This is a recent ebay purchase $9.00 plus shipping. I was wondering if you could perhaps tell me a little more about this overcoat.

Thanks!

Looks nice. Probably '50s? I wonder how well the moth proofing has done, think it's outlived it's 5 year guarantee?
I have one very much like it in blue windowpane.

I know not much about the specific coat (except that I want it)

...but I have a suit from Society Brand. I found out, awhile back, that Society Brand used to be the high-end label for Hart Schaffner & Marx, back then.

Having said that, I've got an overcoat very much like that one and I love it. Good find!

Thanks anon! Great Information, it's in great shape just a small rip in the liner.

Nice overcoat. Wrong time of year

Does it have a union label? (probably inside the inner pocket). Ths will more accurately date it; overcoat styles were so damn persistent!
