Photo Number Fifty-Three

I call this one "The Bow Tie Guy"  ..what do you think 1930's or 1940's??  Is the pattern of the suit coat what they used to call Herringbone? I haven't a clue. He looks very studious..do you suppose he was a teacher or an accountant?
On a side note, often times when Far Guy and I are out and about..if we are stuck waiting someplace..we watch people and discuss what we think they did for a living.  It makes for some interesting conversations!
Thanks for stopping by, do come again:)
*** Abra and Nancy both said this is a Houndstooth Suit Jacket.
