If you decide you want to part with it let me know!
This could be the oldest jacket I own. The original that contemporary makers are duplicating for their high $$ reproductions.
Shanhouse, Terry?
I've thought the same with the same back adjustment I have seen on Shanhouse. These jackets were in the catalogs through out the 20s and early 30s. Probably a style made by others.

Why limit myself to just one? I wore four cross-zips today!!! ;). Thought I'd amuse myself (and TFL) with a snowy comparison. It's fun to compare the cuts and fit of these 50's jackets. We won't haggle about an inch here and there fit-wise; I love them all. I welcome comments on the cuts! From left to right: Red Label Cal, Guide Master by Wolf, Kit Karson, Spiegel.

Can't fault a single one, all have their perfect little nuances, beautiful jackets. Above all, it helps that you're in top shape!
