"front button-flapped cargo pockets with side-entry handwarmers, two interior "map" pockets, side adjustment straps, zippered sleeves with buttoned cuffs, large diamond-shaped elbow reinforcement patches, underarm gussets...and a silky 100% acetate lining"

The question is whether it's older than the '50s - ie, might it have been worn in the '30s, when it purports to be from?
