    Description

    Up for bid is a USAAF B-9 type winter flight parka jacket.  Overall this is in good condition.  First, it is a very large jacket.  I wear a size 44-46 jacket and I can wear this.  The zipper works fine.  The one on the hood is a bit stuck so I did not try to force it.  There are some white paint splatters on it, I worked on a few little spots on the jacket and was able to pick them off mostly successful, so if the new owner wanted to do so, it looks like you could clean it up a bit more.  The only odd thing about the jacket is the hood, as most I have seen did not have a zipped style.  So I know that there were also other versions out there, cilivian made around the time, maybe this is one of those.  Everything else though seems pretty spot on, besides the hood and the liner has an odd color to it (looks like it was dyed or something maybe?)  There is no maker tag, it is visible where it was, but is no longer present.
