^ I thinkk that Athlone jacket, and the one on Ernest Simpson (back a couple pages) are charming. But then I fear the fitted smooth jackets everyone seems to love. I am perhaps a product of the 1980s, when jackets were larger and looser fitting. To each his own.
It's worth observing that modern day A&S does not make anything like these old jackets, despite the advertising, nor have I seen it in any of the pics of tailors I've seen posted on the interwebz.
Interesting post by Uppercase, especially the last paragraph.
