How to dating a Navy G1 jacket?

[Ripshin]

All I know about this jacket is that my Dad won it in a poker game while stationed on Kwajalein during the 1950's. Can anyone help me dating the jacket and care?

Welcome to VLJ, I am sure that someone will be able to help you. But in the meantime, by way of an introduction, why not post a bit about yourself here.

Well it's got a Bell shaped Conmar zip and real fur so that puts it in the 1950's. Slight angle to the pocket flaps suggest Cagleco as a possible Maker. I would guess late 1950's. Is the collar painted USN on the backside?

Well one picture from a distance is no help ?. Lets see the flap by the zip ,back of the collar ,the knits and closeup of all the panels and pockets buttons and zip.

My guess is 50's/early 60's Irvin Foster, L.W. Foster or Ralph Edwards early 7823A or B series G-1. Just a guess tho!
