This is a place for any extant garments in private collections from about 1941 back. There is no beginning date. The only rule is that it can't be currently in a museum and must be before the bombing of Pearl Harbor. I mostly post items I've seen on ebay, etsy, or other auction sites so we will continue to have a record of them for research purposes. If you have antique clothing in your collection, please, email me pictures of them and I will gladly add them to this site.

The coat has stains on inside back of lining and moth holes at back (see photo) and various tiny moth holes on wool. Sleeves gather into cuffs. 38" chest, 46" from back neck to bottom hem.
From Me:
Imagine wearing this while brushing out your hair in the winter, ladies!
