Carthartt, Headlight and Finck, three of the giants of early 20th century workwear. In 1962 Carhartt would buy both Crown Overall (Feb 62) and W.M. Fink & Co (June 62), amalgamating the three brands under the "triple name" logo. Unfortunately it wouldn't last long. Carhartt would consolidate under the single brand name, introducing first a shorted lived Long C logo, and then the now iconic swirled C logo in 1966. The "triple name" logos are amongst the harder to find of the Carhartt brand, and it's great to offer this rare example.
The piece itself is a classic duck cotton chore with a bellowed back. The buttons bear the classic Railcar logo, with the same buttons across the chest, top pocket and cuffs. The riveted corners to the pockets is always a nice detail, as is the contrasting corduroy collar.
Condition
Used but solid. There are two issues, one being a 1" square hold in the front left pocket, and a second being an approx 3" long hole on the inside of the right pocket. Both could be fixed if requested. Expect general wear and light fading/staining throughout.
