Thank you Seb for the advice. I have already used bickmore 4.

By the way. The jacket leather is a bit stiff and heavy, but not too thick. I think it must be horsehide ... but really don´t know :confused:

Thanks you for your answers, my friends. The figure that appears in the label is HERCULES, not a bullfighter (I know them well here in Spain ha ha ha ha). I have been looking for this kind of label and it seems to be from 30s. If so, the jacket would be older than I believed. It matches with...
