I recently picked up this really awesome CSU letterman jacket and I was just wondering if anyone could tell me anything about its age or the brand that made it. Thanks to anyone who can help!

Classic!
DeLong Sportswear (I just looked it up) was a family business in Grinnell, Iowa. (https://www.radioiowa.com/2009/04/22/delong-sportswear-in-grinnell-shutting-down-after-150-years/). I'm afraid I don't know the age. The WPL number isn't super helpful, because even though WPL numbers were issued between 1941 and 1959, the numbers were used long after that time.

Thanks! The only thing I know about the colors is it has to be between 1957-1993 since that’s when CSU used this bright yellow.
