Vintage 1930s/1940s French flannel summer suit. Impeccable, practically dead stock condition minus a few flaws please see pictures, Ive photographed and described all the damages. A very few minor moths grazes- worst is to the back of the jacket, And a couple to the trousers, there are 2red dots to the trousers as well as a small brown mark also- these are so minor, about the size of a pin head. There is a few small discoloured spots to the jacket right pocket, as well as a strip yellowing to the back of the jacket, this isnt greatly noticeable and was hard to photograph to get the right light. Same applies to the inside collar, the suit does have an odour of moth balls to it, so I would suggest a dry clean or air it out. Some sweat marks to the armpits one of the armpit lining stitch had fallen away but the repair has been made so again a minor detail. This I have not pictured, if you wish for pictures of this please ask. A great and rare suit in a typical ivory colour, the flannel is light unlike some of the heavy flannel trousers out there. Bakerlite caramel buttons, patch pockets belt looped and ticket pocket. Pleated front wide and high waisted leg. The flannel has some really unique of runs of colour to it, this is apart of the flannel and not fleck. Please see picture no 8 for example. Im a 38 and this suit fits me perfectly.
