1950s HY Goodman Authentic Black Astrakhan Fur Coat With Mink Fur Collar

Vintage mid-century HY Goodman "just fine furs" authentic black astrakhan fur coat with mink fur collar. This piece is the definition of elegance and glamour. The body of the coat was made from authentic Persian lamb fur (astrakhan) which was very popular in the 1940s-1960s and became extremely hard to find by the 1970s. The fur has a distinct swirling texture, giving it depth and dimension. It fastens closed with two discrete black hooks and loops down the center front. The black astrakhan fur is complimented perfectly by the thick mink fur collar which can be worn down or popped up for extra warmth and drama. There are two slit pockets and the interior is fully lined with silky smooth black floral lining. The previous owners monograms are embroidered in the lining. The original hand woven and stitched in label is still at the back neck. It reads "Just Fine Furs HY Goodman Original". (A high end couture company based out of NY, USA). It has the famed boxy, flaring, a-line silhouette synonymous with old hollywood glam in the mid-century era. Condition: Great vintage condition with no major flaws, just normal wear consistent with age.
