Description - Blue "P-38" sweater from 1943 that was very well documented.
as described in some of the ads I found all from 1943:
"The Jantzen P-38 sweater features as authentic design of the fastest, fiercest fighter jet in the air! An all-wool, all purpose sweater knitted in an exclusive Jantzen stitch to give you a sturdy, warm sport sweater"
"Jantzen's 'P-38' is an authentic and exclusive design. One of hte outstanding winter sports sweaters of the year. 100% virgin wool yarn. Luxuriously warm and rugged"

I tried to document all of the flaws I saw but I could have missed small ones. It is definitely not perfect but it is very wearable! I am selling this as found because I do not feel comfortable washing it so the staining could possibly come out.
