Yes you did. I was involved elsewhere and one person can make a difference. I would not have gone as strong as you. You are the East Coast Man, you know your stuff. This Boston area is like the West Coast bay area when I frequent. edit: this was a difficult jacket for me to not bid on! It is the Top of Quality, just doesn't have a name.
I have a sharp focus on the wool/flannel lined jackets from the late 40s. They just have a vibe, even the redos look better in the wool lining. These were the first of the post-war MC jacket boom. They just have that transition look, from old school to new school.
The leather quality of this jacket is so dramatic, I mean, hard to miss. Were people just missing the label? I do like a label, but quality is hard to hide.
Anyway, went to the right person. Look forward to your rave!
Thank you sir. I am happy. Along with the beautiful hide and wool lining, the short lifespan of the company intrigued me. Such beautiful jackets, especially the early ones. Like a comet in the vintage leather jacket world.
It was on my short list. One you have had major hand in crafting lol. I hope it fits well enough to actually wear out and about. Onto the next. Not too many more and hopefully I can drop the mic like A1.
I doubt it.
