Jacket Conversion in an Afternoon

[fluter]

Is it just my eyes, or do I see a second (presumably false) pocket flap added above the original, functioning flap? That's a nice touch, adds some balance and makes it look less like a jacket that was shortened. Well done!

Actually I think it's a functional pocket---it's called a "ticket pocket" if I recall correctly. I have an ancient suit coat in line to be bob-tailed that has just the same arrangement.
