anton67 Posted September 19, 2015 Share #1 Posted September 19, 2015 Picked this up yesterday. Other than some staining and moth nips on the right sleeve, it is in fairly good shape for a near 100 yr old coat. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

anton67 Posted September 20, 2015 Author Share #10 Posted September 20, 2015 Thank you for the info. Its a shame about the right sleeve but the damage is not too bad. I sprayed the coat with SLA spray to kill any remaining moths. Then I steam ironed the whole coat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
