I have a camelhair top coat my great grandfather wore. It's too small for me now, but I wore it when I was in college. My mom was cleaning out his house when he died...he was the oldest man in Sedala, MO when he died, age 105. The coat was from a men's "habidashery" in Sedalia from around 1930. Its a cool coat. My mom has a picture of great gpa sitting on a barstool in his favorite beer joint from around 1940, and he's wearing that same coat!
