1950s Bright Red Lopez Mexican Embroidered Tourist Jacket Size XS

Description: This listing is for a 1950s Bright Red Lopez Mexican Embroidered Tourist Jacket Size XS. This is an iconic Mexican jacket bearing the Lopez label that was made for the tourists visiting Mexico in the 1940s to the 1960s. It is a beautiful, bright red wool felt with embroidered designs of a resting villager, sunrise, fencing, cacti, pots, and flags on the front of the jacket. The back of the jacket features an elaborately embroidered villager wearing a white poncho and sombrero who is harvesting agave leaves. There are also large and small cacti, a sunrise, a house, and crosses. The cuffs have a really cute embroidered bull and a sombrero. It has green and white cross stitching around the collar, pockets, cuffs, down the front, and around the bottom of the jacket. The jacket is circa mid to late 1950s. This jacket is in beautiful condition with no holes, stains, or missing threads, and the embroidery work is incredible. Any dark areas are shadows from photographing. These jackets, meant to be worn open, always look great with jeans, skirts, and especially, with the vintage Mexican circle skirts. I have a collection of over 140 of these jackets that I have amassed over the last 35 years. I have really enjoyed wearing these jackets over the years, and at this point in my life, I have decided to sell off my whole collection. I selected only jackets that were in impeccable condition. My jackets have been stored in a cedar lined, cool storage space to prevent any damage from sunlight or insects. I have collected every color and design imaginable. You can be assured that my jackets are in beautiful condition. They are very bright and colorful jackets that make people smile when they see you wearing them. Inlaid Mexican necklace not included.
