Dear All

I have a superb older Good Wear Leather Dubow 27798 (size 46), ca. 2010 in mismatched, tobacco coloured horsehide.

The original images (direct from John) are here: http://www.goodwearleather.com/photos/Dubow27798_No2_46/

Some more up to date images are here:





This is one of the oldest, wartime looking A-2s that I've owned, and the mixture of grain bears comparison with the original on the ACME site (http://acmedepot.com/a2jacket/a2images/dubow_grain.jpg, http://acmedepot.com/a2jacket/a2images/dubow_pock1.jpg,
http://acmedepot.com/a2jacket/a2images/dubow_front.jpg).

I'm really enjoying the Dubow 27798 pattern without a collar stand, which suits my build better than any other A-2 pattern that I've tried, but I'm looking for a darker seal 27798 with dull purple knits in goat.

It's in great condition (there are stitch holes where the jacket had a name tag), but does anybody have a goat version to trade?

Cheers

Ian
