Fred Astaire, Cary Grant, and pretty much all of the golden age Hollywood stores wore ventless almost exclusively.
Side vents for a business suit did not exist until the early 60s.
I believe, it was "˜Bunny' Roger who was one of the first to wear side-vented coats in town,
as they would give him the hourglass figure he was after.
