♛Condition

Very good vintage shape (98% excellent, actually). 75+ years old.

The rear skirting has a tight 1" darn near rear hemline and a grain of sand-sized divot. See close-up; photo lightened for easier viewing. Not easily noticed in person, masked by the jet black "void space" effect of this wool, the obscure location, and the folds/volume of skirt.

A couple thin, shallow scrapes to the nap near front hem, only found if fabric is studied closely and turned under bright lighting. 

Coat has decades of wear left in its and is packed with so much style for the price.
