With very interesting Provenance, the waistcoat originally dates to circa 1770-90*, but was passed on through the family to Evelyn Dennison, 1st Viscount Ossington, Speaker of the House of Commons in the UK between 1857-72. This was at the time of the famous Pitt, and inside the waistcoat is written ‘Mr Dennison, Speaker of the House of Commons, Time of Pitt.’
