I believe this raincoat was standard-issue to shift-workers at James Hardie in the 1960's and 1970's where a family member was employed.

It's historic because Australian manufacturers are diminishing in number and this is an excellent example of a plastic/pvc/vinyl raincoat from Superior Plastics PTY LTD Toongabbie NSW who were a large Aussie manufacturer in their time.

I'm using the descriptions vinyl, pvc and plastic interchangeably because I do not know the difference.

The raincoat has been in storage for many years but looks to have been used a couple of times.
I have tried to capture photographs of some white paint? touches in perhaps four areas.  There are other minor brown markings.
There are some (2 max) pressure marks but no perforations.
All the plastic welding is in as-new condition and the arm-pits have no tears or damage.  Stud buttons work great.
Elastic wrist bands are still in good stretchy condition.
Pockets have a classic bird-beak opening making them almost water-proof when folded closed.
THe zipper has lost some stitching but as you can see from the clean white lines, has had minimal usage.
Apart from the white paint, the coat surface is excellent with only water marks from wiping the coat with a damp cloth.
Kitchen scales suggests this is quite heavy with about 1.1Kg of plastic, studs and zipper in this rain coat.

I would estimate the size is Large and measures 90cms from the top of the collar to the waist-line when measured down the zip line.
More of a collectable than something to buy and actually use but Buyer's prerogative what they want to do with it.
