Item:
VINTAGE GERMAN VEST
Provenance:
I got this Vest directly from the Original Owners Daughter who is now 70+ Years Old herself. Her father immigrated with his family to America right before WW2 and brought this vest with him on his back. Her father worked on cars/small engines back in Germany before he took his family and fled to here just in time. While here he worked at a shipyard until he retired. When he passed away down in Florida, the daughter was amazed to find this vest in his storage all the past decades. I truly want someone to buy it who can appreciate its real history from Europe to America.
Description:
For Sale is an
Authentic 1930's
Unbranded German Leather Exterior & Wool Lined Vest.
It has button down closure and no pockets at all actually. It is incredibly well made though and has heavy stitching. The one thing that stands out to me about this vest is its length. It really was made to be worn down past the waist. Its dimensions are noted above. Arm Openings Measure: 9.5'. Overall Length (Measured from Center Collar to Bottom Hem): 31" Long. It measures 19" from arm pit to arm pit. Usually by doubling that number gives the chest size which in this case would be 38. Just because it came from Germany doesn't mean it was made there of course. I would assume it was though because I don't think it was made by some company outside of the country there. I am sure my photos will best further describe this item.
Condition:
On a scale of 1 - 10 (Ten being New in Package Only), I can confidently grade this item's condition to be a
solid 8.
Overall and Especially for being 80+ Years Old, this Authentic Vintage Leather Vest is in
Very Good Original
Condition. First, It is
NO LESS Than 90% Immaculate with Zero Foul Musty Odors.
Yes, the leather does show age as one would expect but only just normal surface aging with no tears/holes. What you see in the photos are simply creases in the aged BUT NOT DRY Leather. There have been Two past older repairs shown in my photos. The patched repairs surely were done quite professionally. The Wool interior is in wonderful condition as well. All buttons are secure. I have not treated the leather with any special leather cleaners but I bet doing so would be really bring this vest back to life. My photos are an accurate depiction of this item's
TRUE
Condition.
Vest Alone weighs nearly 3lbs.
