Description
Text of press release:"EXCLUSIVE TO YOU IN YOUR CITYA water-resistant shirty kind of a coat that is definitely not a rain coat but a coat for all seasons and for all gad-about occasions. Designed by Bonnie Cashin for Philip Sills Company, she loves canvas because of its sturdy quality, and because the shape keeps a concise identity which the leather edging further helps. Note how imaginately the leather edging has been used, especially to outline the kangaroo pockets that have their own turnlock [turn-screw, turnscrew] fasteners to keep treasures safe. The back is shirred and yoked like a swinging shirt.No. 2708 - Sizes 6 to 16 - $150.00,AVAILABLE IN YOUR CITY"
