Its a size 42, and in very good shape. Sold originally for 400-500 dollars. Any thoughts on how much I should ask, and how to sell it other than eBay?<br /><br />jlansman@ranchomurieta.orgAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8882700271785733320.post-70341169928076987732008-01-05T18:58:00.000-05:002008-01-05T18:58:00.000-05:00In response to Nuno, I can only suggest a good goo...In response to Nuno, I can only suggest a good google of William Barry and some hope and prayer. Deerskin leather jacket production centered in Wisconsin in the good ole U.S.A. Barry and Midwestern Sport Togs appear to be two of the most prolific producers. Berlin Wisconsin to be exact, I might suggest looking up Thurlow leathers, they were in business last I checked and they started in the 1900s. Also download a good auction sniper and look on ebay. The best encyclopedia on Leather Jackets is a series of books written by Rin Tanaka published through Schiffer publishing. The histories are a bit light on info, but the pictures are phenomenal. Rin has access to all of the best leather collectors in the US and Japan. He doesnt have a ton of knowledge on Canadian Leather which was as important as US leather but dont hold that against him.<BR/><BR/>thanks for your comment<BR/>David.David Himelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15058879105374623194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8882700271785733320.post-50940288240029724982008-01-05T18:53:00.000-05:002008-01-05T18:53:00.000-05:00Making leather jackets.

Tandy leather company usually has a shop in every major city and they give courses in anything to do with leather. They also supply all the equipment and leather that you might need. They are very helpful. If I have any better suggestions i will keep you posted as I update my log.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for your input<BR/><BR/>DavidDavid Himelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15058879105374623194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8882700271785733320.post-48910916216509736362007-12-09T06:09:00.000-05:002007-12-09T06:09:00.000-05:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11158900047744561115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8882700271785733320.post-8695969812387431152007-12-05T21:05:00.000-05:002007-12-05T21:05:00.000-05:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.ChelseaBootshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14163259685563140750noreply@blogger.com
