Pre-1950s vintage seersucker is very, VERY rare. Perceived as cheap (like straw boater hats), seersucker suits were usually thrown out after two or three summers of use.

I hope that a Fedora Lounger jumps on this one!

Thanks for the history Mark...you're right! Save it from Ebay!

What a ridiculous thing to do. This side of the pond things were always saved and re-used, though I have to admit that they tended to be a lot blander looking than what the Americans wore back then (perhaps so that they wouldn't go out of fashion as they were never really in fashion in the first place).

Unfortunately this suit's far too big for me and I'm not sure it's something I could pull off anyway due to cultural constraints.

 

[LuckyKat]

Never say never...don't be constrained by culture...restrain culture with your own style!

I would be ALL over this if I had the money, I can never find a 44 with and 42in. waist.

 

[LuckyKat]

Trombone,
Let me know when you DO have the money...these kind of things don't come around very often...you might want to borrow some ;-)

LAST CHANCE...its going to ebay if no one is going to grab it...

Ends today @ an incredible price! I won't be relisting because I'm selling at a show next weekend & it WILL BE GONE...so step up to one of the rarest suits around, especially in this size.
