    HELP! Trojan Leather Sportswear?

    Ha! Thanks for the feedback. Doing research of my own, came across leather coats in Europe with the same opposite buttoning worn by men. I would have thought t he pic was just reversed but for the signage that th he model was standing by wasn't. If it is a woman's coat, she's going to look like...

    Obama's A2 ?

    I think the Commander-in-Chief should have a custom made A2. I also think it should have art on the back. Totally hypothetical, what kind of art or maybe 'Pin-up' would a President have on it?

    Help with {date or identify} a hat please.....!

    Closer view of the labeling, also on the front of the sweat band CUSHION FRONT is stamped into the leather. This is the fiirst time I've ever looked under the hatband, I don't know why...

    Help with {date or identify} a hat please.....!

    My old hat. I'm not sure of it's history, help? I picked up this old Bowler/Derby? in Kalispell, Montana about 20 years ago. Saw it in a corner of an antique shop kind of hidden by other junk. I thought it would be neat if it actually fit... it did. :) I'm assuming the store name was...

    Painting "Nose Art" on back of A-2

    "Sorry, I'm not much of a wordsmith, but to me it seems strange to express your individuality by buying a jacket with art that is identical to many other jackets." I think that was perfectly said, Big J. Since 'nose art' for the plane My Grandad was in is unknown, I'll try and put something...
