<p>[QUOTE="Lucille.b, post: 7174, member: 51"]Neighbors were thinking of donating this set to a theater company, but thought I should run it by the board first in case this is an item they should consider selling. It is in amazing condition. I see a repair or two, but no moth holes, all buttons there. Also really little or no fading on the exterior, I took these photos outside and got a bit too much light, colors are pretty dark and solid on the fabric in real life. It belonged to the grandfather of my neighbor who is Swiss and 75 years old so there is provenance. All info much appreciated, thank you. There is both a hat and coat, will start w/photos of the hat:</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1520[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1522[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1523[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1524[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1525[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1526[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1527[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1528[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1529[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
