Will Zach,
says 48 also says 42 with 23" pit to pit ....so maybe not so big.
thanks for the heads up though

Yeah, this is a 1960's 48... You can ask the seller to remeasure; the price is good for a white label HD Sportster. The seller seems to think it is a later AMF model; I don't think so.

One-pocket HD Sportster, 48, $187.50 BIN, looks to be in great condition, missing label but I think it is the early white label, not AMF.
I suggest one of the bigger guys here grab it pronto, this is a classic.

On these Sportsters, you can usually figure one size down from the label...a size 48 will be closer to a size 46. Also missing the diamond pull on the chest pocket. But still seems like a good price...if the zips are all working.

I don't believe this is a 641. The 641 has a single chest pocket on the left side and two side pockets. Just splitting hairs here though.....

I really like the twin check pocket look on these CRs. This is the first gray one I've ever seen.

This is one of those 60s/ 70s ones (or a remake). I had one in brown- great jacket, but I need a 38.

TM certainly did. Never seen another in brown.

I like to look at the one on Etsy every once in a while. A real nice example.

I asked the seller for measurements but have a hard time justifying another jacket after purchasing four in the last 30 days. I like the one handymike posted

Haven't looked at the Etsy jacket recently, but I would guess this one is just like it. Has the same label, both Horsehide, both made around the end of the line for RP jackets. There is another on ebay also appears to be same model.

By this time, late 40s, this seems to be their most popular/common model.

I'm working on the Ralphs-Pugh Collectors Guide when this shows up, so had to have it for examination and picturing!

More RP information just came to me this week from my closet, so stay tuned for more.
