Mink Brown
I have a 1920's fur jacket, it was my grandmother's. I was told it is baby seal, brown, with a mink collar.?
It is Jay Thorpe Couture
It is silk lined and has the letters CLJ embroidered on the lower inside lining. Anyone know what that means?It is in near perfect condition. Anyone know what it may be worth?
Please note that I am a vegan and do not wear fur or condone using animals for food or clothing. I inherited this and would like to get it to a collector who would want it, Thanks.
If you put up a picture I could most likely identify it for you. The letters are probably the original owner's initials, that was done a lot with coats and jackets in the early 1900s. Depending on how it looks I might make an offer myself. 
When it comes to old furs, what it's worth depends pretty much entirely on the condition and what it's made out of. Remember, it's only worth what someone is willing to pay. If you look on eBay there are people asking hundreds of dollars for fur coats because they assume they are worth big bucks, but no one is buying them- the ones that are selling are usually going for under $100 unless they're something like leopard.
