I posted this a while back in the Trad Forum, thought I would give it a go here as they are lovely jackets.

3 Jackets (2 Tweed, 1 Tweed-ish) - 1 Southwick, 1 Polo (Canvassed), 1 Brooks (39-42) .... 2B and 3/2 Roll
Gents,
I have for sale 3 lovely autumn/winter sports coats that just don't quite fit. I actually purchased all three of these, at one time or another, off of this forum - which I think vouches for their quality in and of itself. Just trying to break even (or come close) so the Polo is $40 and the other two are $25. All CONUS.
1. Gorgeous 2B Tan Herringbone Tweed (measurements, description, and pictures from original poster):
Lovely Classic USA-made Polo in brown herringbone tweed. Fully canvassed.
This is lovely, and, being Union-made in the USA, dates from a time when Polo clothing was actually well worth what you'd pay for it! This is fully canvassed, fully lined, and has a single vent. This is very Brideshead Revisited! It's in excellent condition.
Measurements:
Chest: 21
Sleeve: 26 (+2)
Length: 33
Shoulder: 18.5

2. Deep tweed herringbone for Sir Winston Ltd. (Omaha, NB). I'm almost certain the original seller said that this was made by Southwick and it appears to be, despite the absence of such marking. If not, it is of comparable quality. Brown and dark charcoal black with ever-so-subtle flecks of maroon and hunter green. Half-lined.
Measurements:
Chest: 21.5
Sleeve: 25
Length: 33
Shoulder: 18

3. Perfect "Brooks Brothers 346" 3/2 Roll. Not tweed, but gives the slight appearance of such. Kind of light as it is only half-lined the colors a rich brown and black.
Measurements:
Chest: 20
Sleeve: 24.5
Length: 32
Shoulder: 17.5
