Commonly seen in the thirties, three button but lower down on the jacket like a two button and the buttons are closer together, and usually combined with wingtip lapels, modern repro's usually only have two buttons or higher three button stance, thanks.

If it has a more rounded bottom it looks like a sack coat I have a Japanese made one in denim, but this is a classic sack coat yours isn't a good photo

Nice, thanks. It's an interesting style what doesn't seem to have lasted long, makes sense for people to keep wearing this style who were not well off into the forties I also wear 40-50 year old tweed jackets and have a few flat caps from thirties to fifties, reproduction is well out of my means.
