For auction a rare vintage 1950's/1960's Palomino California Sportswear check/plaid waistcoat .
In a dark grey check/plaid pattern on a creamy/off white - close up of the pattern/fabric in the 4th photo.
The label on the waistcoat states 'ML'. However, so you are sure of the exact size - when fastened and laid flat the waistcoat measures 19" across the chest (pit to pit) and 9.5" down from the pit to waist hem, along the side seam. Measured down the centre of the back it is 20.25" from the back of the collar/neck line to the waist hem.
Cross strap across the lower back can be seen in the listing photos.
Fastening with 6 buttons (2nd, 5th and 6th photos) up the front centre. Lower front pocket each side, both with flat top entry. Pockets details shown in the 7th and 8th photos.
A muted gold acetate/viscose lining - as shown in the 10th photo.
A rare genuine, vintage example of a Palomino California Sportswear waistcoat. In good/very good vintage condition (noting the 3 small holes in the back fabric, just below the neckline - in a position on the waistcoat - as shown in the 11th and 12th listing photos).
Thanks for looking.
