For your consideration: a late 40's Montague Burton three piece in a heavy brown worsted wool, with lighter brown stripes. This suit is a bit of a mystery, one leg was unhemmed when i received it, and the trousers had been narrowed and the jacket let all the way out with a single vent added to match a later style, yet all three pieces are in pristine condition. I'm not sure it's ever been worn. Trousers have been re-widened and the jacket has been taken in to something more akin to the suit's original proportions. The jacket boasts an unusual single link button closure. Trousers are constructed with a button fly, and brace buttons sewn on the outside of the waistband. there is a watch pocket with a button flap. All the baroque extravagancies one would expect from English trousers of this period.
