Appalachian through-belt, sewn epaulets, square pocket, sleeve zippers on top, all Talon zipps, red quilt ining with inner pocket and leather hem, no labels. Quite small in size. I believe mine is a 40.

Both mine and ebay have the same Talon zippers. These are seen with Oakbrook labels from the early 60s. Oakbrook through belts are identified in the Sears MC thread I'm surprised how nice the Steerhide is on these jackets, and I've rave about quality during this era. Steerhide is most prevalent and it was all over in quality, more varied it seems than Horsehide.

These are curious jackets, worth of interest.

Is that collar detachable? Sewn on? I'm not quite sure. Mine does not have a collar.

Mine is set up for a collar. I was faking it with this Ralphs-Pugh collar.
