Eldridge/Harry Rothman polo coat

7040 Views 17 Replies 9 Participants Last post by  FromNYtoYou
I picked up a camel hair polo coat today with a tag (below) which reads:
Eldridge
distributed by
Harry Rothman
Fifth Avenue
Hand Tailored

It feels canvased to me. Anybody know anything about either Eldridge or Harry Rothman?



I'll post pics of the coat later when I have a little more time.

Hi, I'm a little late to the thread but...my grandfather was Harry Rothman. While I don't know anything really about the exact coat, most if not all of the clothes in the store were sold with his own label. He would get the post-season clothes from the big guys and resell them at a discounted price. Eldridge was a street that he liked as a child. That's where the inspiration for the name came from.

That being said, what size is the coat and would you be willing to part with it?
I have sent a message to him as well. This was very interesting for me as well a there is unfortunately very little info out there about his store which was pretty big at the time. 2 of my cousins have opened a clothing store with the name, but it is not the same.
