Will do MissSis (Ben?). I'll be in town at the beginning of May, so it might have arrived before I jet out again, and I'll know if I need to send it down south.

 

[Miss Sis]

Baron, 'tis the lady of the house typing.

 

[Baron Kurtz]

Ah, sorry S. Could you get the gent of the house to email me? I've been trying to see if he'll be around when i'm back in town.

best,

P.

Many thanks to BTJepson for sending this out. I look forward to receiving it.

The 2 button notch lapel jacket is, for me, the absolute greatest of all the American 1930s jackets. Truly iconic. Can't wait to have another one!

The Odyssey of this suit has become a source of great amusemnent for me. Baron, I hope we get pics of you in it REAL soon.

This thread is so cool

Elmo was certainly a scrawny one. Arrived yesterday. The jacket is a solid size 35, which is good, as that's my size. I will need to lose that extra weight I've put onto my waist, though; the jacket is very tight as is.

Thanks again, BTJepson!

I'm glad it arrived allright! There seemed to be a bit of material in the waist that could be let out. And, yes, Elmo was underfed to be sure. Wish it fit a little better on you, but maybe you can get it to work!

...The jacket is a solid size 35...

That's good. If it had been a 39R I might have had to strangle myself.
