Took this one out today, 1968 Martin Lane G-1 I recently had a knit replacement job on. The mouton fur is really dry. Think some beard oil might plump it up a little? I figure, if it's good for living facial hair what harm can it do to dead hair...

Hey, looks just like mine! (I have a 1968 Martin Lane G-1, too. Post on the previous page in this thread.)

I'm trying to remember how I spruced up the mouton collar on mine. I think I mixed a little Woolite with cold water in a spray bottle, then worked in a light spritz of the mixture into the collar with my fingers. Then rinsed a little with plain water. For the final step, I used a small plastic comb to fluff up the mouton and let it air dry.

There are a few holes in the knits on mine and I was thinking of getting the knits replaced. Can you tell me where I can get authentic knits and who did the job for you? I want it done right. Thanks.
