This is a 1960s era mens raccoon fur coat made in a shorter “car coat” length.  This mens raccoon fur coat is made with a rounded collar that can be worn up or down and has notched lapels.  It has six buttons arranged in a double breasted style and closes with three loops.  It has a slash pocket at either side.  It also has an interior fur trimmed pocket.  The lining is quilted across the lower part.   The neck can be worn open or closed - the loop is present but the button is detached, but can be re-attached.  The original owner’s embroidered monogram of “PM” is affixed to the lining below the pocket.

Label: Reid Montreal Canada.  Reid is a quality furrier, still in existence.  

Sizing: No size is indicated on this mens raccoon fur coat, but it should fit a medium to large size, probably a US size 40/42, depending on whether you’re wearing a sweater or jacket underneath - please rely on the following measurements of this mens raccoon fur coat for fit (compare measurements with a similar coat that you presently own or to your own body measurements, taking the cut of the garment and thickness of fur into account):

Shoulders: 18”, taken across the back from shoulder/sleeve seam to shoulder/sleeve seam

Sleeves: 24” from the shoulder/sleeve seam

Sleeve inseam: 16 1/2”

Chest:  46” around, taken under the arms

Waist:  46” around

Overall length:  39”, measured flat at the back from the neck seam to the bottom

Condition:  This mens raccoon fur coat is in very good condition with no noted wear, except for a small fray spot to the lining above the pocket, very minor (see last close-up photo).  Raccoon tends to be a fairly robust fur - there are no splits or repairs to the fur pelts and the fur appears fresh.  

This is a wonderful mens raccoon fur coat - you don’t often see a mens raccoon fur coat.  For the natty dresser!
