M-445A Gordon & Ferguson

[bazelot]

I just received this outstanding Size 42 M-445A Gordon & Ferguson. I had never owned a G&F M445A before and this one is in incredible condition. Is really soft and would make a perfect wearer. I didn't even know G&F made the M-445A, the more common brands for M-445As are Monarch, HLB and H&L Block.

Absolutely gorgeous!
Great find Baze!
Any info on the named owner?

 

[bazelot]

Yes he was a ferry pilot stateside with Ferry squadron 3. I also have a very nice flight helmet from him which I acquired around 8 years ago

I like the jackets, but they mean so much more when they have a story to tell.

 

[bazelot]

Exactly, the history behind it is always so much better than the actual item.

this is his helmet:

That looks like it’s in mint condition.

It's not mint but in great shape. This is a unique setup
