Hole for pocket watch attachment
Payday brass buttons and snap buttons on chest pockets

Beautiful fading and whiskering on sleeves
Shorter sleeves are common on work jackets as they are designed not to get stuck in machinery
Condition: Beautiful vintage condition with signs of wear. Beautiful medium fade to the denim with a few smaller paint spots on sleeves, some fraying on cuffs and loose stitching at the hem. A unique piece of history.
