WWII USAAF TYPE A - 2 FLIGHT JACKET
Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:49992053 |
Gentlemen,
Up for auction is this genuine WWII USAAF Type A-2 Flight Jacket. This example was made by J.A. Dubow. The jacket shows wear and age. The seal brown leather is soft, and there is evident presence of flaking on the shoulders. Conmatic zipper is working perfectly. Knit cuffs and waistband have been replaced properly. Sadly, the contract label is no longer present.
- Left chest shows a hand painted 3rd Pursuit Squadron (Hell’s Angels) insignia.
- Left shoulder show...s a hand painted Flying Tigers insignia.
- The back shows the ghost stitching from a previous blood chit removed.
Due to the fragile condition of this example, it is recommended only for display.
Unfortunately, I don’t have any previous info about this jacket.
Let me know if you have any question.
All sales are final.
