Other Notes:
For the flight jacket:
"The patch on this jacket is a reproduction of a famous WWII-era "Flying Tigers" blood chit. It shows the flags of the United States and the Republic of China (the "Blue Sky with a White Sun"), with Chinese text requesting aid for the American pilot."

Each overall good condition with dust accumulation, wear and creasing commensurate with age and use. Light wear/distressing to edges at cuffs and hem. Each with a few scattered faint scratches and a couple of minor nicks to the leather. Each with minor pilling to rib knit trim interior. The red jacket with very faint smudges to neck interior at collar and lining.
Condition reports are offered as a courtesy and are typically published in Moran's catalogue or can be made available upon request. The absence of a condition report does not imply that an item is free from defects or restoration, nor does a reference to particular defects imply the absence of others. Buyers are responsible for determining to their own satisfaction the true nature and condition of any lot prior to bidding. Though buyers are not legally required to inspect lots prior to purchase, failure to do so may constitute a waiver of complaint that an item was not delivered in a condition equal to the existent condition at the auction.
