Authentic, original 1950s United States Navy G-1 Flight Jacket contracted to Monarch Manufacturing Company. The original owner of this jacket was a crew member of the U. Please understand this jacket is nearly 70 years old and signs of wear and use will show this. The zipper pull and a few teeth have corrosion build-up that can be cleaned. The zipper pull and teeth with build-up are not damaged otherwise.
There are a couple teeth missing, but it does not affect the closure. The pull does get difficult in spots, but it does fully zip. Scuffs to the leather are pictured throughout. The USN stencil under the collar is virtually worn out and is no longer visible.
The leather will also need to be conditioned as the jacket has grown stiff from improper storage. The lining and pockets are in great shape some slight discoloration, but no major damage. The sleeve and waist cuffs have a few small holes, but nothing major. Feel free to contact me with any other questions.
