I'm looking for pictures of the above. Apparently it had some 16 pockets. If it's the one I've once seen it even had a little adjustable loop to help keep a folded newspaper in place in one of the hip pockets.
I saw a wonderful bolt of rough, heavy linen at my tailor, so I'm planning something of that sort -- inspiration would be gratefully received. At the moment I'm thinking three-button, four patch pockets, but with the left chest one at an angle (as in the Barbour International jacket, say) and with a buttoned flap. Single-button cuffs. Shirt-set sleeves. Quite a few internal pockets of course, some with zippers. Ideas/opinions?
This is a bad iphone shot of the cloth:
