The Richmond fedora

Surprisingly nice trimming and construction for a wool felt body.

G.A. Dunn green fedora
This one is long since sold, but is an unusual example. You don’t see too many green felts, to begin with. This one has delicate ventilation holes, a light colored sweatband, and a fancy bow. It appears that at some point the hat was reversed, maybe to even out wear so as to avoid a hole at the pinch? The model is “The Polo”.

Monarch leather jacket
This vintage leather jacket was made by the Monarch company, a legendary leather jacket company of the golden era, who held an A-2 contract during the war. This is an aviator / motorcycle style, with an asymmetrical front zip , two flapped pockets, and two map pockets. It has epaulettes, belted sleeve cuffs, and a bi-swing half-belted back. The main zip is a triple marked sunburst Talon. The tab on the male side (the side without the puller) is missing. It’s still zip-able, but it takes a little bit to get the teeth to mesh initially. The chain zippers on the two map pockets are also talons. There are two ventilation grommets under each arm. The jacket is made of colt leather, a type of horsehide. There is damage to the cuffs, and cracking to the collar. The left shoulder has some flaking and the lining has wear and some moth damage. This jacket has been worn and has acquired a fantastic patina over the years.

This vintage two tone jacket has a gold metalic brocade panel front, and black sleeves, trim, and back. With the asian print lining, it’s safe to say it’s a Hong Kong tailored job. It buttons all the way up the front, to the neck, so it can be worn with a standard suit jacket look, or a nehru look. It’s a great early rock and roll stagewear look. There is wear to the metallic thread, and some staining to the front- see pics.
