VINTAGE 1950’S KOREAN WAR MIL-J-7823 CAGLECO SPORTSWEAR G-1 FLIGHT FLYING JACKET 40
The goatskin shell of this early 1950’s Cagleco G-1 flight jacket is in excellent condition with almost no signs of wear. It remains soft and supple. The ribrack waistband is also excellent with only one small bite. The cuffs have been replaced and are in generally good condition. The wine/brown rayon lining is in good condition with the exception of the neck area (please see pi...cture). The zipper appears to be original (one set of stitch marks) but the pull is obviously a replacement. There is a spot of separation and a loss of tooth above the male end (please see picture). This, in my opinion, makes zipping impossible. The mouton collar is in bad condition. The silver USN is on the back of the collar. All buttons are present.
Measurements:Size 40-Armpit to armpit is 20 ½ inches-Shoulder to shoulder is 18 ½ inches-Shoulder to end of cuff is 24 inches-Top of collar to bottom of ribbing in back is 26 inches
