LL Bean Field Jacket--MADE IN THE USA, with all the right features!

Like the Maine Hunting Shoe, the LL Bean Field jacket is an iconic piece of Americana--and, like the Hunting Shoe, was originally designed (in 1924) for use while hunting in the Maine woods, the tough 10 oz canvas shell shedding the snares of briars.
Alas, Bean now off-shores its Field Coats, and those that are "Imported" just aren't the same.
This jacket is thus the one you want--Made in the USA, with all of the original features.
Cut from hard-wearing cotton canvas, this has two deep handwarmer pockets on each side, the bottoms of which serve as the covering flaps to the two deep patch pockets underneath. The chest pocket is zipped. The turn-back cuffs are lined in thick 16-wale green corduroy, which matches the cord of the collar. The buttons are large and designed to be easy to do up. The underarms are reinforced, all seams are lapped and double-stitched, and the back is bi-swing for ease of movement.
Plus, this jacket has the desirable button-in Primaloft plaid liner--a feature that I believe is no longer available on current coats.
These jackets are becoming increasingly hard to find, so if this is your size, grab it!
This jacket is in Excellent condition.
Asking just $49, boxed and shipped in CONUS, or offer.
Size Large Tall. Measurements:
Chest: 26 (owing to thickness of liner)
Sleeve: 25 1/2
Shoulder: 22 1/2 (Owing to liner)
Length: 33
