1930s? Overcoat - Help with dating!?

[Cellsz]

1930's? Harris Tweed Overcoat. I paid around $34 for it, and it's in pretty good condition with only one tear. Not too shure if anyone know how to properly date it, as I tried the HTA and they said that due to the sheer number of requests, they could not help. In one of the photos, you see the numbers "11730", so I am unsure as to if that could be 11/07/1930 (one could dream!). The label for the Harris Tweed matches the one from the 30's? But I cant find one for the Richman Brothers Label...

Any idea on when the silverish Richman Bros. label came around, as I can't find any that match it? And how about the dating on the overcoat?

Let me know if you want more pictures!

Thanks,
Justin

Hi Justin, welcome to the forums - beautiful coat, the HT coats are much rarer than the sports jackets and yours looks to be in excellent condition. Congratulations on getting it for a good price too!

I date your coat as 1950s. If you look at the Label Resource, it's similar to the black '50s label there too.

Great find! The "Richman Brothers" logo to me looks very 1950s.
