I was wondering if this was a real deal 50s Sweatshirt or a modern reproduction. Any information is appreciated. Thank you.

Likely a repro out of Japan, but I will check with a gent who knows much better than I.

Josh from IVWT says, "Looks unworn, and they might have repro’d the square back tag but I’ve never seen one, you should ask the poster if it has secondary tagging on the inner side seams, usually a dead giveaway, if that’s real it’s very expensive."

No other tags on this Sweatshirt

When I used image search I got a TON of hits from Japan, but this link shows the reproduction of this tag:

and it's been updated this year.

Josh mentioned inside tags would be a giveaway. That said they could be removed.

But it looks like it could be legit, where did you get it?

Came from my local goodwill. Definitely no remains of an inner seam tag.

I don't usually look at these types of garments authenticity wise, but betting that repros have different measurements that we could compare to?

But looks to be legit.

Are you going to sell it?

Yeah I'm looking to sell it. Still have to do my due diligence as far as pricing.
