I just found this mens jacket and couldn't dig up much information online besides seeing some other pieces in Museums. I would love any help dating it and what the markings on it mean. Thanks in advance!
I believe from this article that the company was in existence from 1910 to 1935, when it went bankrupt, but I may be confusing that founding date with the company's newly built building in 1910. It was a men's and boy's clothing store. A very similar jacket is on 1st dibs Code: https://www.1stdibs.com/fashion/clothing/coats-outerwear/browning-king-co-c1920s-knights-templar-masonic-black-wool-frock-coat/id-v_2366713/ That one has a date of 1927 in it. Your red cross patch is, I believe, a Masonic symbol, The Order of the Temple.
