Yes I have a JC Highins model 29 ( made by High-standard ) .22 *****, they sourced pretty high quality goods for their JC Higgens line.
I'll bet this jacket is a great piece.

Such a nice jacket. Thick, grainy hide. Her is mine in this hide—

I’d say the fur collar is original.

This is the first Taubers in this style I have seen. The measurements read like a 44 except that 27" sleeve. They do look long. Custom made? Probably early 60s

I second that. By the way, I think Cal's collars are some of the best made.

They really are. Thick, feel nice and secured well to the jacket.

I see how mine is based on this. And through the tear I might even be able to see the elastic band you mentioned?

Beck's crosszips with the same label go for $500, just sayin.

Here is the opposite of this Thread's intention. Not a "deal" and this is a 5-digit price jacket. Yes indeed $17K on ebay. "Jeff Hamilton" special.

I love my country and freedom, but this looks like a simple "lambskin" bomber jacket. No idea where the price is coming from:

Dude!!!!!!!! The actual asking price is $17,777.00. AND IT HAS 8 WATCHERS!!!!!!!

Luckily, it DOES have the Make an Offer option.......... Just hoping my offer of $15,500 isn't too insulting
