Shown on men’s vintage mannequin
Condition: Authentic vintage wear with honest patina from real use:
Natural fading, soiling, and honeycomb creasing on arms/sleeves (typical from repeated bending/wear)
Tiny pinhole below last bottom button on front (small and visible in photos)
Light fraying along right shoulder seam stitching (no tear through fabric; seam remains secure)
Some loose stitching at bottom opening/hem in areas (intact, no rips or separation)
No major holes, tears, or damage to body or lining - interior is structurally sound with minor fade and surface wear
This is a solid, wearable example of mid-century American workwear (similar in style to period chore coats, Detroit jackets, or barn jackets). The "48" stamped starburst hardware suggests this was likely produced for Sears (Hercules) / Blue Bell or Montgomery Ward during the late 50s to early 60s. Estimated based on construction features (no care label, triple-needle seams, button/lining styles).
