Brilliant. What a splendid find.

If the fit isn't right (and i hope, for your sake, that it is) I'm sure you'll find a home for it.

My meagre contribution:

A tie made in England, but for a Kenyan shop. At least it helps to give some idea of what the well dressed man was wearing in the colonies.

Nice thread. I'll contribute as much as I can:

Early 1920's cream flannels, Buenos Aires, Argentina. Will be worn this summer together with my white oxford bucks.
Small fishtail back, side adjustors. Stamps inside the lining, which has a "cheap feel" to it, as linings can feel in some 1910's suits. Four belt loops, only in the front. Typical lower rise fit. Note the custom buttons.

Thanks guys.

I actually must confess that the cuffs were originally only around 2-3 cm on the trousers. But I had them let out, together with my preferred cuff width of 5cm. I mostly do adjustments that are period correct.
