<p>[QUOTE="Debora, post: 4409071, member: 1476"]It's a raglan-sleeved bomber jacket with blouson back. Manufactured by a Pierre Cardin licensee which means the French designer Cardin was not involved in its design. Probably 1970s given made in Hong Kong and non-natural fibers. The WPL number identifies the manufacturer as Eagle-Freedman-Roedelheim which was formed by company mergers in 1958 so that's an earliest date. They manufactured men's shirts in Pennsylvania but by the time your jacket came along they'd seems they'd moved manufacturing abroad (as most American companies had.)</p><p><br /></p><p>Debora</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]374075[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
