The Chaps say: Almost certainly 1930s 1940s; came to us with a yellow tattersall check waistcoat dated 1939 and tailored in Lisbon. This is almost certainly from the same tailor and era. Rare opportunity.
Condition: VERY GOOD - ready to wear, only some minor flaws to note: a few small marks and holes to the front, a previous repair and two faint marks to the back, some minor discolouration to outer edges and lining. Please note that the bottom front button is slightly different from others. See photos.
Estimated size to fit: UK / US 41-42, Europe 51-52
