Golden yellow wool varsity cardigan with violet chenille patch letter O. The classic American letterman cardigan - an icon of preppy style, in high voltage colours.
Labels for JW Smoak Hardware Co Orangeburg, South Carolina (so maybe the O is for Orangeburg) and SAND Knit Athletic Knitwear, Sand Knitting Mills Corp, Berlin, Wisconsin.
A few condition flaws - small area on collar that has been machine darned. And, as seen in photos a hole on the right front. Leaving this as is in the hopes there is someone out there who can repair or re-knit better than I can. Also, bottom button missing. Still, a survivor in very good vintage condition overall!
