Original American World War Two Era M1941 Jacket, c.42" Chest German However of particular interest isAn original US WW2 era M1941 jacket. Worn and used condition, perfect for that combat impression. General grime and dirt, one small cut on the rear (pictured). Very light wear on the collar, as these are prone to, some wear on one of the cuffs, which looks as though it has been worn turned up slightly. The Conmar zip appears original and functions well, take care as always of course. All buttons are present but there is no maker's tag. Size tag 36R
