Summary
A black wool dinner jacket with tails. It has deep lapels to the front of the jacket and fastens with three covered buttons. There is an inside breast pocket on the left hand side of the jacket and a label sewn into the inside of the collar that reads 'Henry Poole & Company, 37,38,39 Saville Road, London. Ernest W. Greg'. There is a hole on the right lower sleeve that is potentially evidence of moth activity at some point.
