Are you looking to part with it? My old man was in 15 Para in '68 and ended up in Aden. When he got out just after he had all his kit knicked. Everytime I go home and the subject of the army comes up he always laments losing his Dennison smock. I keep trying to find one for him but haven't had any luck.
That '68 jacket won't be a Denison from barnstormers description.
Your Dad would have had a '59 Pattern Denison. They can be found, if you know where to look, although, even these are now getting expensive. Ten-fifteen years ago, you could pick up '59 Patt Denison's for peanuts in surplus stores, but, they can easily go for a few hundred quid now.
There was a '59 Patt on that link posted earlier.
