I received a message from Mr. Chapman today providing a few background details on my new jacket.
As it turns out, the one I purchased is #2 of 2 Ostermann "No Name" 23383s he's made to date, as pictured here: http://www.goodwearleather.com/photos/23383_No2_46/
The most striking evidence is by close inspection (e.g. the patina) of the zipper box and puller:

Concerning the fit, JC explains that this example was based off of CBI's original (aka this one http://www.vintageleatherjackets.org/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=13345), sized 44:
So, in summary: I scored a real winner, I guess I'm fatter than I thought, and A2 collecting is like playing "Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon" :lol:

Beautiful jacket...I love the fit, grain, color and the square shoulder cut...just a killer. You nailed it!
