Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

[tmitchell59]

Interesting how this jacket used side zippers to tighten instead of laces. Effective but might be a bit expensive. This jacket must be a higher priced model in its day, it has more details than others. Unfortunately the belts were cut off right?

I have not encountered another jacket maker using this construction. At first I thought it was a non-original but then I found another. Both of mine are unlabeled as is the current ebay jacket. I have pictures of this style with a "made in Californian" Montgomery Ward label.

Yes, it would be more expensive to add two zippers.

This has the belt attached. All I've seen have a light weight lining. Yes, they are short

These jackets are late 40s early 50s.

If it was even close to my size I’d buy it just on the label alone

A most interesting jacket. Never seen this label. Looks like early 60s and the seller is in Pennsylvania. Makes me think of a maker in that area. Herms Sport Togs.

This is pretty smashing too I think.

I don't recall this one being posted here. Good example of a what a size 44 Buco can bring at full auction; $1225. The opening bid was $500, I bid that and watched. I was surprised.

Killer jacket for a smaller dude. I like how the seller described and measured the jacket to the best of her abilities.

That horizontal upper right chest zip is different for a cross zip style. Being a 40s-50s vintage maybe they carried over this pocket style from more highwayman type styles?? Though you do see variation in the pockets on CZs, this one you don't seem to see. I am wondering if it was like a remnant of other styles that just faded away with the evolution of the D pocket etc.

Correct me if I'm wrong.. at a price of $24,000 some one is having "a pipe dream"! I'm wondering if the pants pockets are full of the sellers crack?

I think they missed a "." Like $239.00 - much more like it.

This is me in a 42 with a thick jumper:

There is no tapering from pits to hem, mine is 23" pits and hem, 44 should be good for you. I think i paid 450$ on TFL for mine, the are pretty rare.
