Scott MZach,
Your observation is pretty good in that the jackets look remarkably similar with the three stripes at the bottom of each sleeve and the pairs of buttons down the middle.
Scott Fs portrait looks like his jacket has a dark collar whereas the Doolans looks to be lighter but the jackets do look pretty similar. Probably was a popular style jacket in the day.
You are correct that the Doolan is an E97 B&W "Proof".
