While this item description from that well-known on line auction site is not a 78 rpm recording, it DOES contain alot of spin...
 
"YOU ARE BIDDING ON THE VERY RARE WWII U.S. ARMY AIR FORCE CAPTAIN GLENN MILLER (THE FAMOUS BAND LEADER ) DRESS UNIFORM TUNIC AND HAT GARANTEED 100% ORIGINAL  JUST LIKE THE DAY HE WORE IT ! ( THESE WERE LONED TO GLENN BY MAJOR C.E.LEMMON FOR GLENNS LAST PERFORMANCE IN THE UK . AFTER THE SHOW GLENN RETURNED THE TUNIC AND HAT AND THEN LEFT THE NEXT DAY FOR PARIS FRANCE BUT HE NEVER MADE IT ! HIS PLANE WHEN DOWN IN THE ENGLISH CHANNEL AND HAS  NEVER BEEN FOUND ! THIS TUNIC AND HAT (WERE BROUGHT BACK FROM THE UK BY GLENNS CLOSE FREIND  COLONEL VINCE RETHMAN , HE FLEW IN 71 MISSIONS IN P-38 OVER FRANCE ) , ALL IS  IN EXCELLENT CONDITION COMPLETE WITH ALL WINGS MEDALS BARS !

Does anyone know GM's size for these items? I suspect he was much more than a 42-44. I do not know the story on his measurements, but at ~ six feet tall I think 24 -44 would have been snug...
 
Comments, class?
