Hi: Yes, these cuffs are a rare design. I've only seen 2 examples: one online and one I recently purchased. I'd like to see photos of the whole jacket. Mine is a '40s straight zip CHP. This site is terrible; won't let me attach photos. Cheers.

The crazy thing is how nice the leather is on this...probably as good as any jacket I have any decade. Is this yours? Does it also utilize the really tiny snaps for the collar?

No, mine has normal snaps; are you sure yours weren't added later. And mine doesn't have horizontal stitching at the pockets. It's not a perfect fit but I like the style and age; I think it's a Star Glove, but I can't find enough exemplars to confirm. My first vintage leather was a similar gorgeous Cal CHP with snap cuffs that I acquired 35+ years ago. It had amazing butterscotch patination, as nice as any I'd ever seen; I wore it to death and wish I still had it. Cheers, Bradley
