AFS Vet's Leather Jerkin

This leather jerkin is wartime issue. It came directly from the vet's family. The vet served early in the war in the AFS. He was issued this leather jerkin for fire duties. It has lost it's wartime label, but it is clearly stamped, on the inside, as AFS 1.
The vet added a modification to the back of the neck. It is fitted with buttons, which I assume was for a hood, to protect the fireman.
The jerkin is a medium size and in good condition overall. As with most leather jerkins, there is a split to the shoulder section, where the stitching has come loose, as clearly shown. All of the features on the jerkin are wartime.
