    Trying to identify age and maker of double rider jacket

    Hi: I obtained this nice angle zip recently and would appreciate any informed input on its age and maker. It's been relined, so no label or markings anywhere. The main zipper is Talon, the others YYY. The leather is medium weight; not as thick or stiff as the four Cal-Leather CHPs I've had from...

    Vintage Cal Straight zip Leather jacket

    Hi everyone, I recently picked up a Cal straight zip, and had a few questions. I was wondering if it’s from the 50s or 60s, and whether it was HH or not? I see that all the zippers are Talon, however, I’m not quite sure. Thanks!
