Willis & Geiger A-2 Flight Jacket WWII US Army Air Force Donald Duck Size 42

Willis & Geiger A-2 Flight Jacket WWII US Army Air Force Donald Duck Size 42. Please read carefully before purchasing. This is an original World War II era US Army Air Forces A-2 flight jacket manufactured by Willis & Geiger Inc. This historical piece belonged to a member of the 8th Air Force, 531st Bombardment Squadron, stationed in England. The jacket features unique hand-painted artwork, including a long-wing 8th Air Force emblem on the left shoulder and a Donald Duck bomb-throwing motif on the left chest. The original lining remains, though it has been modified with the addition of internal pockets on both sides. The zipper has been replaced with a later-era Talon slider, which operates smoothly. This is a museum-grade collector’s item with a traceable squadron history and authentic nose-art-inspired hand painting. The Donald Duck artwork follows the original Walt Disney design, making it an exceptional piece of military aviation history. The leather is in good condition, remaining supple with no cracks or tears, though it shows natural fading, minor stains, and darkening around the collar. The lining has minor abrasions near the hem and several small holes a few millimeters in diameter. The right sleeve rib has two areas of minor stitching fraying that have been repaired with thread to prevent spreading; the left sleeve and waist ribs show no damage. There is a visible mark where a leather name tag was previously removed. Era: World War II (Original). Body Width: 60 cm. Shoulder Width: 53 cm. Sleeve Length: 58 cm. Hem Width: 45 cm.
