This suit dates to the 1970's. Unfortunately, my photos do not
capture the color
as well as I'd like it to. The suit is a rasberry color. The
jacket has a two (2) button
center front closure, a breast pocket and two front patch pockets.
Each of the patch pockets is accented
with a white vertical stripe. The entire suit is accented with
white top stitching. The jacket
is 3/4 lined with a white and rasberry plaid lining. There are two
(2) inside pockets. A singe vent in the
back completes the jacket. The matching slacks have a two (2)
button waistband and western style pockets.
A decorative side tab accents the waistband on each side (see Detail Views). The
slacks have a slightly flaired leg. The inside label of the suit
reads, "Johnny Carson Tailored for Kleinhans" The jacket is
a 44R and the slacks measure 34" waistline by 31" inseam (3" hem).
The suit is in very good condition. I did notice a light
spot, but I'm sure it would come out with cleaning.

This early vintage three (3) piece tux is sturdy, wearable and very
chic! The jacket has a center front one (1) button closure. The
collar has a nice sheen which offers a nice contrast to the jacket
material. A breast pocket and two (2) front pockets accent the
jacket. The jacket has a 3/4 lining and there is some underarm
damage to the lining (wearable "as is" or could be replaced). The
neck label reads, "Clothcraft, DeLuxe, Reg. U.S. Pat. Off." The
jacket is a 38R. The matching vest has a three (3) button front
closure. The vest neckline falls to a very low "U", rimmed by a fold
over collar. The vest has four (4) pockets and an adjustable strap
in the back. The vest is in very good condition, but does need a bit
of restitching at the back seam. It looks like the vest has been
hemmed. The slacks have a center front button closure and inside
suspender buttons. A watch pocket is sits just below the waistband.
The pants have a vertical stripe along the outside seam. The
waistline measures approximately 34" (may have been let out) and the
length measures approximately 30" inseam (approximately a 1" hem).
