♛Condition

Deadstock true vintage -- with original paper size tag attached. I have lint-rolled but not washed these so they retain "new" status.

I did not see any visible flaws or issues with these. Due to being 70+ years old and a group of individual wool pieces, there's the small possibility of pinholes or a similar tiny age-related imperfection not seen when worn. Since they are priced about $100 or more less than the few (non-deadstock) comps out there, I think this is reasonable.
