I posted my original request on the Selling Board & someone suggested I try this forum instead. I have an old item of clothing (30-50 years old I believe) I want to list for sale on e-bay but have not had any luck finding out about the company. I have searched Google, etc. I have attached pics of the large label inside the jacket and a photo of the jacket itself. (It has a Nautica or Tommy Hilfiger look to it.) Thanks to all.

Also, if there's an RN #, you can use the RN lookup tool. Just google RN lookup, that can give you the address & phone # sometimes.
I'm not sure what the mfr is going to buy you though, since you already have the label on it. I'd just list as is.
Well, you're hiding a lot of it. Can you post a better pic with the front showing? Just hang it on a hanger. It looks 80's to me though, at a quick glance & with the knowledge that it has hook & loop closures in front, in addition to the zipper. As, I said in the other thread do NOT use the term "velcro", as they VERY aggressively protect their brand (& with great humor, there are some hilarious videos they've put out).
It could be late 70's, but I was around then & very into fashion & I don't recall hook & loop closures until the late 80's. Chap or Jsales may know better.
ETA: Also get a close-up of the font on the care tag. I can't see it well in your pic, but from what I do see, it looks fairly contemporary.

Thanks for the extra pics. I posted on the other thread, but will copy it here. Basically based on my experience & the additional info Chap provided, I still think 80's.
<<OP posted pics on the Fashion board, including close ups of the tags. I told her there I think 80's, as that's when I first remember hook & loop being used regularly. 80's style too & the label saying "drip dry".
BTW OP, these colorful windbreakers had a resurgence a few years ago, they usually like them more colorful than this, but you may be able to ride the coattails of that trend. >>
ETA: I don't think you need to wait for jsales opinion before you list it. She's not always here & while she IS super knowledgeable, her forte' is shoes.
