1950s Gingerbread Man Suit | Vintage Early 50s Gingerbread Brown with White Chalkstripes Two-Piece Jacket & Pants Set | Size 38/40 Medium

Suit up looking delicious in this early 1950s suit! Gingerbread brown wool with white rope-stripes. Single-breasted jacket features notch-lapels, jetted chest pocket, two welted hip pockets, two-button closure with matching cuff buttons, with a butterfly rayon lining, one inner pocket, shoulder pads, and unvented back. Trousers have a pleated front, dropped belt loops, 5 pockets with one buttoning in the back, steel Talon zip and button closure, and suspender buttons. By Croll & Keck of Reading, PA. We're dating this suit to the early 1950s, but it could just as easily be a late-40s suit with the unvented jacket, dropped belt loops, single inner jacket pocket, etc. This suit is in great vintage condition, with a couple subtle period mends and no holes, stains, odors to note. 

Please Note: We list the Suit Size in the Title. A "Suit Size" is taken from your actual chest measurement. While we'd like a well-fitted suit, we don't want a skin-tight suit, so the actual jacket chest measurement is generally a few inches larger.

Measurements taken flat and doubled where appropriate:
Chest: 42"
Shoulder: 19"
Sleeve: 25"
Overall Length: 30"

Waist: 31" + 2.5" to let out if needed
Inseam: 30" + 2.5" to let down if needed
Rise: 13.5"
Outseam: 40.5"
