peacoat help

[jjdarklink]

Hello everyone. I'm looking for the seasoned peacoat users to put their stamp of approval on my would be purchase.

I am 42 inches in the chest, 5' 9" in height. I believe this peacoat should fit me well. Would you agree with that statement?

Also, it claims to be a ww2 peacoat. I looked through the sticky, but I could not identify it. Can anyone do so?

Lastly, would you say its a good buy in terms of longevity? I need my coat to last for a good while.

Thanks

Based on the Peacoat dating thread, that looks to be somewhere in the 1958-1965 region. Not a WW2 coat, there would be another pair of buttons on the front if it was that old.

Actually, there are some notes about sizing towards the end of the sticky thread, and they suggest the sizing on that eBay coat is probably right for a 42" chest.
