Found this in a farm field. I found no info on it, my guess is that it's late 1800's early 1900's. Thanks for any help.

Very nice find! Here is one that sold on eBay:

I did find some listings (not for Geo. F. Sullivan) from the 1880s Fall River, MA Directories that show the address of South Main cor. Borden.

And in the 1910 Fall River Census there is a listing for George F. Sullivan, age 35 with an occupation of Tailor in his Own Shop.

Wow thanks! This is the next town over from me so it's nice to have a piece of some local history

tailor will give you -- a 50 cent "rebate" / discount on a overcoat * most likely given out if you bought a suit of clothes
