They also featured a melton lambswool collar for protection from the elements, and finished with a rayon liner and action back construction for ease of movement. Based on the contract number, this example, produced by Willis and Geiger, was made in May of 1949. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs can be expected, the rayon lining is well worn, the knit cuffs and hem have some fraying, and it's got a few paint spots on the arms and body, as shown in photos. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMade in USA.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lazy Sun Vintage","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54042820378819,"sku":null,"price":300.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0602\/2889\/4915\/files\/Willis1_f454a332-78e9-4fb0-b835-6b7ffa18a6ab.png?v=1782924841","url":"https:\/\/lazysun.com\/products\/1949-willis-and-geiger-goatskin-us-g1-42","provider":"Lazy Sun","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
