This is a late '30s-early '40s privately purchased jacket. It's a strange beast with the B-3 style pocket and many non-B-3 features. The pre-War Kwik No. 8 zipper was used on pre-War jackets.

Love it. Fantastic jacket.

 

[John Lever]

Me too. It has B-1 features, particularly like the collar.

 

[Silver Surfer]
