Trying to date red coat

[Samantha_nick]

I recently picked up this gorgeous coat and I'm trying to date it. I found a union label and I'm hoping that will help.

Thanks

What a great coat!! The National Coat and Suit Recovery Board label was used from the mid-30s to 1960.

Your coat looks late '40s to early '50s to me - Let's see what others think.

I would lean 1940s over 1950s but am not one of the forum experts (yet) haha, it is beautiful!

oh yeah, 40s/50s. but I also lean towards late 40s. because of the length. 40s cut was just to the knees, I think 50s were little longer. below the knee. also strong shoulders.

Love the coat and that label! I see early 50s.
