Mansion Sale-Stately Home Antiques Payment Shipping About the Mansion Sale Valuation About the Mansion SaleI am clearing the rooms of a large London mansion. Nearly EVERYTHING in the pictures will be sold. MORE WILL BE ADDED EACH WEEK. NO RESERVES and low Start Prices, so stick in a bid…you might win something very special for very little! ! HAVE A LOOK AT MY SHOP FOR MORE MANSION SALE ITEMS! Valuation As with all the stuff I'm selling, I haven't had it formally valued. That's why there's a real chance you could pick up something valuable for very little! I put them up on eBay at a low price and 'let the market decide'. Sometimes I win, sometimes I definitely lose. But I avoid paying the extortionate valuation costs and the ridiculous commissions and fee to auctioneers and agents. Stick in a bid…You could be lucky! Vintage British Army Officer's Tropical Colonel's Parachute Regiment Uniform Military Size 40 Trousers 33. AMAZING FOR FANCY DRESS PARTIES! � Gentleman's Wardrobe Sale of Vintage and Bespoke Jackets and Suits (See MY SHOP for more) This item is part of a Mansion Sale (see below) of items being sold over the next month or so. More items are posted every day. All suits, jackets and shoes are approsimately the same size, as they're all from one 'Gentleman's Wardrobe' of bespoke, vintage or designer items. If you happen to be between 38-42inch chest size, 32-34inch waist size or 8.5-10 shoe size (UK), then you're in luck! PLEASE NOTE: THERE IS NO 'PINNING' IN PICTURES (see note). Also note that there hasn't been time to dry clean or iron items, so they will improve from the pics with a little care! Sizing Note PLEASE MAKE ALLOWANCES as model is slightly larger than me at 6ft 2 inches tall with a 41.5 inch chest, very long 25.5 inch arms (seam to wrist), 33 inch waist, 33 inch inside leg. Also note that these pics were taken at an oddly LOW point, making the waiste look bigger than the shoulders, which isn't actually the case of course but don't have time to retake them! Pinning Note There's ABSOLUTELY NO PINNING here (most suit/jacket sellers use Tailor's Dummies to pin in the waist TO GIVE THE APPEARANCE of a tailored fit that DOESN'T REALLY EXIST). The tailored appearance pictured here is EXACTLY AS IT WILL BE WHEN IT ARRIVES! This Jacket Approximate Size: 40L Sleeve Length (seem to end of cuff in inches): 25 Jacket Length (Collar Seem to bottom at back in inches): 32 Chest Size (approx distance under arms x2 in inches): 40 Waist Size (width of belt x2 in inches): 33 Colour: Khaki Description This is a British colonel Army Officer's Tropical No.4 Uniform. The pattern suggests it's quite old (with the curved top pockets etc) but the condition is like new, so it must be later. Anyone know?? There are no labels inside. I'm afraid the Sam Brown Belt, the shoes and the ribbons aren't part of the sale (but are readily acquired elsewhere for little…happy to help with some links). The shoes are being sold by me separately. The condition is almost like new, with the following exceptions. One of the Colonel's pips is loose and the single stitch holding the rear centre vent has come undone. Other than that, there's the odd mark here and there, but nothing that won't come out with a clean. It's a spectacular example of a British Army Officer's Tropical Uniform! Grab it before the millitary collector's see it! ! Mark PLEASE LOOK AT MY NEW EBAY SHOP TO SEE OTHER SPECIAL THINGS FROM THE MANSION SALE!
