I owned this at one point. Well not this specific jacket ha. But a 1928 MBE. For some reason it was called Marlon Brando Edition (MBE) even though it looked nothing like the Wild One jacket. But it was 1/50 for the Spanish market. I believe I sent it on its way in part of a trade with @ksozay if I recall. These are made of fairly thin leather...but some of Schotts finest detailing and precision from the various Ive handled, seen, and owned. 300 is a more than fair price. Someone should get on that.

My 1928 75th is a size 50. It runs large, it weighs 5.9 LBs according to my trusty luggage scale, but I thought it was heavier. It’s good enough for winter and room for layering, and when it’s not I got the B3. Its my go to cross zip (I’m not a rider) and $300 with box is basically a steal - you can see what others are asking an eBay

Yeah like I said 300 is quite a good deal. They are nice.

How the hell did this guy measure that sleeve? Wow. I'd ask for measurement from the top of the shoulder seam to cuff.

Good question there - seems way too short. Not that interested, otherwise I'd ask for a photo of this.

Thanks for the link. Nice Langlitz. It does look kind of green...or very dirty.

I had a Langlitz Green label a few years ago. Sadly, way too small for me. The Green labels I've seen have a slightly different design.

I went to Rin's book and you are correct the fourth of Ross's tag was green and the first of his tags marker Langlitz Leathers used from 1950 to 1956. I go confused with the green Speedway Tag that had the two speeding motorcycles used 1948-1949
I have only seen one Speedway tag but I have not had a speedway or Langlitz as a search for many years
