In the post-war period, as car ownership increased, there was a fashion for shorter overcoats that allowed drivers greater freedom of movement as they were driving. With its narrow wrap, close fitting chest, and a flap on the breast pocket, this coat appears to date from the mid-to-late 1960s (a period in which men’s tailoring was inspired by the 1920s).

Size Approx. 40: Chest (measured pit to pit) = 22.5 inches/Shoulders = 19 inches/Sleeves = 26 inches/Length = 34.5 inches 

Condition: Good (N.B.  there is a hole on the right shoulder seam that is easily repairable – see photos)
