    What a great coat. I have not seen one with embroidery before, they are usually just signed with pens, etc. This one is super nice.

    Wow! That is so original! But why did you list it? :)

    I'm not sure I understand your question, Kevin. Do you mean why did we sell it at all?

    I had a little Ginger doll and she had a name jacket like that.
    Such a cute huge trend back then.

    I just remembered a cool 1940s plaster plaque I sold a long time ago:

    Not an autograph coat but it shows the trend.
