yes, pretty cool. I would be interested in bidding but its too small for me. Wish the back was either one piece or horizontal 2 piece.

Even if it was the right size, it's not a wearer per se...

It's a historical piece and should be treated as such.

No way. In my book, unless it's a named museum piece, wear the hell outta it. That's a nice jacket but it looks terribly odd without pockets.

agreed, wear the hell out of it. maybe even add some pockets.......hmmm, maybe even new knits, as the ones on the jacket are probably replacements anyhoo. hell, why not redo the new collar knits like an issued a-1? oh, did i forget top stitching the waist?
