Description: This listing is for an incredible (but has lots of issues, PLEASE READ full description), vintage 1950s custom tailored (for Ben Simons, a now defunct Midwestern mens shop) two piece suit in a size 40R.

Jacket Measurements Chest (pit to pit in front): 21"Sleeves (shoulder seam to arm opening on the outside): 24.5"Shoulders (shoulder seam to shoulder seam in back): 18"Length (base of collar to bottom of hem): 29.5" Pants Measurements Waist: 32" (0" to let)Inseam: 29" (cuffed and 0" to let)Rise: 12"Leg Opening: 19"ConditionThis suit is pre-owned and I would consider it a project piece due to the number of issues it has. Price is low for that reason, as I couldn't bring myself to toss it. Structurally it's solid, but there are lots of discolorations, including some on the jacket (left lapel near top button - see photos) and near the crotch area of the trousers (which have been soaked gently in cold water with Woolite, but no other treatments). I've included photos of all the issues. Discoloration in jacket lining in multiple places, I've included photos of everything. I've included photos of all the issues. Hopefully someone will save this cool piece. Sold AS IS.
