Men's Suits from 1939

This was the closest I could come to men's suits that show up in AB's post.  It is from an old catalogue from Simpsons for Fall 1938 to Winter 1939.

    I was only 2 years old in 1939 and didn't have a suit until I got married. However I did have a belted raincoat in the 1950s. Now no raincoat and still only one suit that just about fits!

    And most of them are wearing hats. Given the choice, it would be the hats I would be sending off for. A great link Rosie.

    Very cool - just like Grandpa wore :-) Probably not far off coming back around in fashion again!

    It's amazing how little changes in men's fashions. Those suits look pretty up to date. But the raincoat - that's a different story. Looks more like a bathrobe.

    Yeah, the bathrobe, I mean raincoat, could use a little more styling. I love the hats.

    Looks like my mom's brother. They were all good looking and wore the best clothes. Great post. I love these old things that bring back good memories.

    Love the sunbeams over the shoulder of the fellow in the coat, the rain over the same fellow in a different coat. Prices are amazing.
