Hi FL, is there a specific thread for photos of brochures/marketing materials from various jacket makers? I'm going to purchase a brochure from an obscure leather jacket maker I found on ebay and wanted to add it to FL for reference. It's 18 pages so will require several pics.

Bring it on ...looking forward to reading it .
Thanks, I'll upload it to my media and share it here and in a related thread once I get it. It's a booklet from Herm's Leathertogs based out of Easton Pa and then Daytona Beach. Being a native Pennsylvanian, I'm hunting for one of their jackets and came across the brochure.

I share you interest in catalogs, brochures, etc. I also have the catalog you are calling 1980. How did you arrive at that date? I can find no dates in mine.

I missed out on a Herms Cafe racer a couple of times. It may have been too small.

He had quite a catalog. Do you know what happened to Herm?

Paper goods associated with leather are just don't show up. I've got a few and keep looking. I like them as much as the leather jackets.

Hey Terry! The brochure "1980" was sold as such, but like you, I didn't see an actual date.

Herm died in 2006 and I posted on another thread that his house fell into disrepair and was featured on an episode of American Pickers (with his son) in 2011 (see season 4 episode 2 which can also be purchased on Youtube). I'd love to see any brochures you'd like to share.

That said, I'm having Johnson Leathers do a replica Herm's CR as we speak. I'll post it when I get it.
