WW2 USAAF Aero B3 Flight Jacket with Bullion CBI Theater Patch

An original WW2 US Flying jacket which is strong and could be worn in you so choose. This B3 is well tagged and made by the famour Aero Leather Clothing Company. This example has been treated with leather conditioner at some point so, the leather is supple and strong. The sheepskin is complete and not dry rotted or mothed! The jacket has a couple of minor issues. The original zipper is broken and would need replaced if you wished to wear it (I personally would leave it alone on display). There is wear along both cuffs with rips (see the pics). Perhaps the nicest feature of this jacket is that it retains an original thater made Bullion CBI patch (China/Burma/India) on the right shoulder. The left shoulder has four Newey hook snaps sewn on so that a second patch or blood chit could be snapped on and off (it is missing).

Size 38 Regular.

Please email for more pics if you like. This is a heavy jacket so let me check on postage to your area before committing to pay.
