Bullock & Jones was founded in San Francisco in 1853 to serve the tailoring needs of miners who'd struck it rich in the Gold Ruse of '49. From the start they emphasized exceptional tailoring and luxury fabrics, a tradition they continued under their closure in 2001... and then they re-opening in 2005, and then their second closure in 2007. They now exist as an online presence only, which is a great shame as their staff were experts in their fields, and exceptionally courteous.
This is a lovely example of one of their more recent "Orange Label" offerings. Cut as a Continental three-button jacket with darting, this is half-canvassed and fully lined. In accord with its Continental cut it has twin rear vents and four buttons cuffs. The fabric is a lovely mid-weight cotton, with 2% lycra for ease of movement.
Made in Italy, this is in absolutely excellent condition, and is a bargain at just $35, or offer, boxed and shipped in the USA.
