I think I done good on a Lee Rider 101-J denim

I am pretty stoked. I have been a denim jacket enthusiast for as long as I can remember, maybe Jr. high? Anyhow from what I can tell, I may have just scored a 1964 Lee Rider 101-J off Ebay. I found a site listing the different labels and their years..........
This label, listed as 1964, is identical to the one on the jacket! We shall see. The top photo is from the jacket, close enough for me to take a chance and actually cheap enough I am not going to go broke if it isn't.

If ithe jacket doesn't work for you.. That should be my size..

Why so skeptical? Sometimes, you can score very nice 1960's Lee 101-J's for a song.

it looks amazing, BUT I cannot get a good look at the tag on the pocket. I will know in a couple days. I was using this as a guide for the label. By the way it was $89.00, like I said we shall see!

I can't believe the condition for its age.

Neither can I....that's why I'm skeptical. It just seems like the the old "too good to be true" adage applies. I just don't have this kind of luck.
