Hello everyone. Getting interest in this. Updated with measurements and pics.

I have this sportcoat in 38R. It has been altered, the waist was taken in on the sides and working cuffs were added on the sleeves. However, there is one flaw with the SC. My old tailor make a mistake and did not make a working buttonhole on the last hole of the left sleeve. I did notice this until after I got home and he refused to fix it. I needless to say never went back to that tailor. This is likely an easy fix and I am going to see if I can get it cheaply done before I list it but I am just putting it out there if anyone wants to purchase it as is and fix it themselves, shouldn't be more than 10-15 dollars.

The jacket is an e. thomas wool/silk blend (I believe 55% silk 45% wool) and is lightweight and in a beautiful summer pattern. The jacket has very light full canvas construction with soft shoulders (no padding but some structure). It fits TTS for a 38r fitzgerald in the chest. Single vent. Sleeves are 24.5-24.75 if I recall. Will add specific measurements if people are interested. Given it's condition and the fact is is tailored I am open to reasonable offers. The jacket is available right now at BB for 598 dollars and even with FF sales this is still substantially cheaper.

Please PM for any questions. I ship items priority next day or soonest convenience. I offer insurance and tracking. Paypal add 4% for fees.

Measurement
p2p-20.5
shoulder-17.25
length-29.5
waist at button-19 inches, room to let out
sleeve from shoulder-24.3-.4
