An original private purchase Royal Navy Ratings 'Jumper, Serge' dating from the 1940s which was made by 'A Bernard Production'.

The interior retains the original maker's label which features typical 1940s graphics and the place names of 'Harwich, England' and 'Valletta, Malta'. The original owner has marked his name below this in white.

Chest - 19"
Inside arm - 19 1/2"
Outside arm - 22 1/2"
Length - 26"
Shoulders - 16 1/4"

The jumper is in good condition for its age and it displays very well. As it was clearly used for best it only shows limited signs of wear and use. There is also evidenec of where badges have been removed. Please take time to study the pictures and bear in mind that this is a vintage, pre-worn item which may have small flaws commensurate with age. 

A nice original Royal Navy Jumper complete with its original label.
