An antique fencing jacket from the early 1900s, probably from 1910. It's got some serious history on it, with names and notes scrawled all over the collar from previous owners. There's a bit of grit in the fabric too; the inner quilting's got a few stains that could very well be from blood. This jacket's seen some action, no doubt. It's not just old; it's got a story woven into every stitch.
