House Cleaning. Vintage (and some just old) sacks for grabs

I am trying to make room for incoming and future suits in my closet.  Would anyone be interested in any (or all) of the following:

1.  The "anglo/ivy" jacket I mentioned on an earlier post.  I think it is a lambswool in a darker brown and lighter brown herringbone.  Two button, undarted, lapped seams (including the back seam), center vent.  The lapel also has a throat latch that is detachable. 

2. Harvard Crimson Shop 3/2 Blue sack blazer.  Poly/Wool hopsack, patch n' flap hip pockets, besom breast pocket, center vent.  Three on the cuff.  Normal width lapels, not too wide, not too narrow.  Stitched edges.

3.  1950s union tag Harris Tweed 3/2 sack made for Stewart Douglas, which was a mens store in Boston.  Grey and Olive heavy tweed herringbone with lots of little flecks of  red and maroon in places.  Flap pockets, center vent, two on the cuff.  The lapels on this one are the narrow, rounded kind popular in the 50s.

If anyone wants any of these I will throw in a couple of wool tartan ties, some vintage Press ties (made by the Burlington Knot), and a vintage Sero "Chambrox" blue button down in a 15.5 inch neck (made for Paul Carr LTD, Boston). 

All the jackets are in excellent condition with no stains or rips, including the lining.
They are probably more akin to modern 38R, or slim fitting 40R.  I am 5'10", 170 and they fit me slimly.   
PM me if interested.

Is that Sero still knocking about, BoO?

Chambrox... Chambray meets Oxford Cloth? How would you describe it?

Interested.

Thanks -

Yeah a pinpoint.  Not sure why the called it Chambrox. Nothing like chambray really, save for the fact that there is a lot of white threads in the weave.  It was one of those durable press never-needs-ironing shirts.

^ Just to say that I have a few items from this chap and the quality of his stuff is amazing. As is the quality of service you get from him.
