Vintage 1930s NRA Label Art Deco Linen Suit

A most spectacular and rare mid-1930s linen suit.  Lightweight, natural-toned linen.  Straight, fitted skirt with a front kick pleat.  The skirt closes at the side with a snap waist and hook-and-eyes.  The coat is a remarkable example of Art Deco detailing.  Duster length.  The collar and pockets have an embroidered check design.  It has an open front with a large tie but at the top (the ribbon can easily be removed or replaced if you prefer).  The sleeves have a great 'pointed' silhouette just below the elbow and at the cuff.  The pieces can also be worn separately.
