Default Anybody Seen this Jacket Before?

Just picked this up second-hand, and I'm curious as to it's age. Can't seem to find another like it.

Congratulations on your first post to HDF, welcome to the forum.

Always nice to see an informative first post. Thanks for posting the pictures.

If it was white and had fringes on it we could probably tell you the history and date it correctly.

Best Regards.
