    Forecaster of Boston was trademarked in 1990 but in its filing claimed use since 1960. The absence of the registered trademark symbol makes me think pre-90s, though that’s not a guarantee. I would say most likely 80s but could be late 70s with the pointy collar. Let’s see what others think.

    The size is 13/14. If it is a very small size, I would place this in the late 60 to the 70s.

    The collar and back belt look to me like early to mid 1970s. I tried to find an advertisement that shows your coat's style, but was unsuccessful.
