Featured Man's vintage fine wool belted coat

I picked this up today at my local thrift store for $1 today. It's made by
Posner's Bayonne. Seems to be very well made, fully lined, nice wool fabric. Is this an officers military coat or just for any man ?

Thank You

Billy D.

 

Does it say Wool, or could it be Cashmere??? VERY smart looking!!!!! My guess would be Not military, just well to do gentleman.....

 

Doesn't have any label that says what material it is, only the company name. I know cashmere is soft to the feel, this material is a little bit prickly like wool. Here is a pic of the only label and also the material.

 

Second that.
Beautiful coat, Billy.

 

Posner's opened for business in 1948, if that helps.

Very much like the "London Fog" style.

 

I like it!

 

Just might be the wool you're thinking then, Billy! Looks to be in pristine condition!!!!

 

Would this weave be called "serge?"

 

Is that last picture the lining or the outside fabric?

 

the overly large collar screams 1970's to me.

 

Is the lining removable?

 

lining not removable.

 

Nice find kimokwa..

 

it's the outside fabric

 

Thanks everyone for all the replies, now I have something to go by but not yet.

 

Nice coat Billy .. Joy.

 

Thank you..I wish I wore coats like this, I love it. Maybe I will keep it for winter but around here, nobody dresses fancy, just a bunch of blue collar workers.

 

Wear it with flair and pizazz Billy, it's okay to be different .. Joy.

 

Hmm, okay I'll try but if I looked more like a model I would feel more comfortable wearing it. Last year in winter I wore a wool coat but some people I know said, what the heck are you doing wearing that, that's not your style Billy. I guess I need not to care what other people think. Thank You Christmasjoy....
