I recently got this Kuppenheimer Valgora Coat from the latter half of the 1930's, I believe.

It's a blend of baby mohair, alpaca and wool.

Will probably be wearing it tomorrow if I go out, as the cold weather has returned.

I'm guessing very late 50s or 60s because of the really narrow lapels.
Anyone out there got a better estimate?

Same estimate here, can't narrow it down either. The Union tag is the 1949-1962 in the regular version without the (R) symbol. Could still be later than 1962, of course.

Nice one, Fastuni. Love the "coarse" texture of the herringbone weave and the scallopes.
Was it an offer at the German 'bay? Think I recently saw a very similar one...
