Fun fake fur coats 80\'s or earlier?

Well I'm finally almost done taking my pics, but I just wanted to see what you all think of these fun fake fur coats - other than I think they're awesome, I'm not sure when they're from. TIA

Coat one

Coat 2

Thanks again!!

P.S sorry about the crumby pics, it's way to hot for me to even think of handling fur or wool outside to take pics on my mani - oh and I'm wondering, the first coat, do you think it's worth it to get it cleaned?? It'll cost alot for fur cleaning, but I wonder if it'd be worth it to do it? Thanks again!

anyone??

I'm going to go out on a limb and say early 70s on these. Hopefully someone else will come along with another vote!

They look 70's to me. Love that first one! How unusual with the honeycomb effect. Super!

I love that one too! Actuall I love them both Thank you

Before I went to the expense of fur-process cleaning, I'd try a tumble in a COLD dryer.

Another vote for 70's.

yes, these are 70s.

I would put the first one at mid to late 70s (but I don't know when that Canadian ILGWU label would date from) and the second at late 60s to maybe mid 60s. These were huge in the 70s, but I've had some that dated back as far as the mid 60s.

Well that union label is the same as I have in my 1970s raincoat and a summer dress - according to the information I have, it was used from 68 to 84, so it fits.

As far as I know Karen is right about the Canadian union label used on this, I have some items that look to me to be later but all my research (hours of it) about union labels in Canada seems to end at 1984, so I guess I'll go with that then - it's the stamped ones that confuse me...but that's another thread

I kind of thought the 2nd one might be 60s, but I wasn't sure if it was 60s or 80s - cool, thank you everyone for the responses - I'll try the cold dryer, it's just the first one on the collar needs a refreshing. I may just sell as is, I was going to keep but they'll be too big on me by winter so we'll see Thanks all!

Is there a name for these coats??

I actually meant to say that I thought the 2nd one could be late 60s to mid 70s.... My typing is not so good.... it is a pretty classic style, so not easy, IMHO, to pin down.

Maybe I'll 60s/70s it and admit I'm not sure - if I list it -no probably I'll just put it as 70's, it's super cool whenever it's from!
