[Kelly Parkerson]

I currently have a Russel Taylor Faux Blue Fox Fur that I am trying to find information about. It is a Signature Collection "Limited Edition" piece. It has the original owner Initials (I believe, from what I have read on here) embroidered on the tag. It looks as if it may have been custom made. I cannot however figure out what year it was manufactured I do however know the person I acquired it from had it in their closet for over 10 years. Can someone help? Thank you, Kelly P.

We had another post about a Russel Taylor signature collection coat, which you may find interesting, if you haven't read it already:

I'm not sure exactly when those shorter, bracelet sleeves, came in to fashion, possibly as early as late 1950s, but certainly they were around in the 1960s. Perhaps someone else will know better than I.
