Dear Mr. Semins:
In your letter dated May 2, 1990, on behalf of your client,

The jacket features a full front opening secured by five
buttons, a quilted silk lining, shoulder pads, and a ribbed-knit

closure.
The sample is being returned to you as you have requested.
The applicable subheading for the jacket will be

similar articles, of other textile materials, other. The rate of

A copy of this ruling letter should be attached to the entry
