Description: READY TO SHIP G1 JACKET M-422A AN6552 Resto G&B WWII ORIGINAL. Condition is Used. Shipped with USPS Priority Mail. THIS HAS BEEN RESTORED BY GIBSON & BARNES TO EXACTING STANDARDS, USING A WWII NOS TALON ZIPPER, 100% CORRECT WOOL KNIT ELEMENTS & REAL MOUTON COLLAR. THE FACT THAT THERE IS A "US" ON THE BACK OF THE COLLAR LEADS ME TO BELIEVE THIS IS A AN6552. ALSO YOU CAN SEE IN THE PICTURE HOW THE BACK SEAM PARALLELS THE BI-WING BACK (NOT GOING TO THE ARMPIT), WHICH IS ALSO A TELLTALE SIGN OF THE WWII JACKETS IN GENERAL & THE AN6552 IN PARTICULARLY. THIS TIDBIT OF INFO ELUDED ME FOR YEARS. THE BUY-IT-NOW WILL INCLUDE ONE SQUADRON PATCH AND YOUR CHOICE OF BLOOD-CHIT. OFFERS WILL BE CONSIDERED FOR THE BLANK JACKET, AS IS. IF YOU WANT A WEARABLE BEAUTY, THAT YOU DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT RIPPING THE OLD LINING. OR RUINING AN ORIGINAL FRAGILE JACKET, THIS COULD BE THE ONE. I HAVE BROUGHT THIS BACK FROM THE DEAD, AS IT HAD NO LINING, ZIPPER, KNITS, OR COLLAR WHENI GOT IT. SO PLEASE, PURISTS, DON'T BE UPSET, THIS IS THE PERFECT JACKET TO WEAR, PATCH, EMBELLISH, INTO A DREAM JACKET- NOT ONE THAT NEEDS TO BE UNDER GLASS. PIT TO PIT: 22"; ACROSS SHOUILDERS: 18". I MADE THE BLOOD CHITS, COPYING ORIGINALS THAT WERE IN MY COLLECTION. I ALSO MADE THE ORIGINAL LOOKING 23 FG PATCHES IN TWO STYLES. ALL THE OTHER STUNNINGLY BEAUTIFUL MULTI-LAYER PATCHES WERE MADE BY ARTIST EXTRAORDINAIRE SEAN COLLINS (A2JACKETPATCHES). THE WOVEN REPRO PATCHES WERE MADE UNDER THE SUPERVISION OF ANDREW BUTLER (OLD-CLUB-BADGES). CHECK SIZE CAREFULLY, AS I DO NOT OFFER FREE ROUND TRIP TRY-ONS. WHEN I BUY THE WRONG SIZE, I RESELL, RELIST, TRADE, OR GIVE IT TO A FRIEND. I AM ALWAYS LOOKING FOR THE PERFECT FIT, STYLE, OR DETAILS, SO I HAVE QUITE A FEW IN MY COLLECTION, I OCCASIONALLY LET SOME GO. RECENTLY OPENING THE FLOOD GATES, A BIT. 95% OF MY MANY TRANSACTIONS ARE AS A BUYER, SO I KNOW WHAT A GOOD DEAL IS & WHAT IS GOOD SERVICE. I TRY & MAIL OUT SAME DAY AS PAYMENT. I LEAVE POSITIVE FEEDBACK AS SOON AS YOU PAY. YOU HAVE COMPLETED YOUR PART OF THE DEAL, SO I DON'T WAIT TO GET YOUR POSITIVE FEEDBACK FIRST, HOLDING YOURS AS HOSTAGE.
