Condition
Good with some minor points to note;
- wear to the inner collar where it rubs on the neck
- when held up to the light there are 6 pinhead holes
- a small darn on the right front jacket edge where the fronts touch
- not an issue but a point to note - someone has added two poppers to keep the piece closed when in wear
