Cooper G-1 question

[pjman]

May latest purchase was a 'blue-label' Cooper G-1. Is it possible to determine the date of manufacture form this label?

Thanks in advance!

Pjman,
I believe that this jacket was made in 2001, based on the fact that “01” appears in both of the number codes on the government issue label. I am pretty certain of this, but not 100%. I am far more familiar with the black label G-1 that were issued into the early 70s.

Thanks - it's what I suspected, but like you, I'm more familiar with the black G-1 labels.
