This ultra-rare 1940s Fireman's jacket by JC Penneys is made of durable wool whipcord. Additionally, this jacket features awesome hardware throughout, including a Talon front zip, Talon dangling front chest zipper closure and metal debossed laurels and "FD" buttons on the sleeves. The design and silhouette has a classic 40s look with reinforced elbow material and rear shoulder expansion gussets.
