Hi folks,
Hopefully, I'm not posting too many posts with newbie content. I found information about a very interesting jacket,
the seller might be a member here - looks like he/she was aware of the item. In a description, he quoted Mr. John Chapman, regarding "no evidence of this type of jacket being issued. This jacket type appears to have been made in small numbers by several makers, with very different designs. There are some with epaulets, some without, and some with bi-swing backs, and some without.”
My question for this one is: can we assume that the vertical stitching seam points that this design feature for the lining was made by Monarch MFG?
Bellow an epaulets-free example and question time [I know... again questions], do we have any known dependency that non-epaulets jackets in this pattern don't have a chest pocket? Also based on the pictures below, what manufacturer could produce this jacket, and is this Crown zipper a replacement one?
If you can post any pictures of these jackets - genuine ones, no fakes or replicas, this would be great to see more examples.
Thanks!
