Yeah, there were a few size 50s made, and worn by brass and desk jockeys that show up are often in pretty good condition. It seems that the big a-2s were made by aero and cable. Other contracts may have been made in size 50, but I haven’t seen any. MacArthur’s a-2 was a big boy jacket made by cable.

My neighbor has a size 48 or 50 of some kind, I’ll have to see which contract it is. Yours is in far better condition than his!

The placement of the patches on the sleeves of this jacket concern me. Placed by someone after it was brought home from service?
