Original era manufacture. A fine quality set of doeskin wool, featuring a white double breasted coat with light blue wool, collar, cuffs, shoulder straps and Corporal chevrons. Size about a 38. No moth issues to mention, no major staining, all buttons appear to be present. The only minor flaw is a one inch long seam opening under the left and right arm at the shoulders. The matching material trousers have a 32 inch waistband with a 31 inch inseam. All buttons are present, with three of the suspender buttons being replacements. Thin white wool piping on the outside seam of each leg, watch pocket, and a half belt in the back. No real moth issues to note, only a very few small snags in the fabric.
