As long as you don't over exert yourself. Sending a package to farrago must have taken it out of you.
All of my makers shirts are between 21-22" across the chest on a 14.5 neck. I think the main difference between the older and newer ones is the size of the armholes, but again, the older ones may have been washed more so who knows. In any case the difference is marginal, great shirts no matter what the exact vintage.

Two items I have put up at eBay:
Gloverall grey car coat XXL 48 chest wool, unlined, raised seams, large front pockets. A stunning vintage coat but far too big for me.

(if viewed already I have some much better pictures up for this now).
Wolsey black wool and cashmere car coat, Large 41-43 chest, duplicates another car coat I have:

Anyone interested in them outside eBay do let me know via PM.

Someone buy it before I do!
No international shipping, so you might have a job. (Contacting the buyer may resolve that.) Lapels are a bit much - I have a similar one I've still not actually worn.

^ Hang on, let me bump Moose's old thread.
*Edit*
The footer idea is even better, nice one.

Thank us you bloody lurkers! I should get paid for this.
^This makes perfect sense, and that's why I don't post on this thread.
Good sense, think we have probably all groaned when an item we are watching is posted up!
I've been posting some links to Buy it Now items here lately and all of them were gone within the hour, into anonimity without any thanks. I will stop now.
Get your footers working!

It is working already 1966 pm’d a lovely item over to me earlier (thanks again pal). I think this footer idea could catch on ,wish it was my idea but I saw it over at Andy’s or the curriculum can’t remember which. Obviously this will only really work with regular posters. Maybe as an alternative there could be a sort of data base of members sizes, preferences etc. This could prove useful if you find something nice, it could be a sticky even, if the top banana agrees.
