cheap 1940's bike jacket

[Hawkeye]

Can you tell its my day off? I found this nice looking (but small) probobly late 1940s bike jacket with a good looking brass lightning zip and A-2 style collar. Looks like it has the possibility of going for a decent price.

Could be an early British bike jacket with the Lightening zip. Might be one to go for.

Absolutely with Australian Carr Snaps too. The Lightning zip pull is an interesting variant on the ones used on Irvin flying jackets.
