Where on earth did you find it!????
This one came out of New Hampshire. In the listing the seller suggested that it could perhaps be cut into a shorter jacket if one didn't like the length.....the husband said that it was Police Motorcycle coat from the Boston PD. I have French Exams this morning (how's that for Canadian), but I will try to take better pics and do a post about it this afternoon.

This UNBELIEVABLE UNIT of a coat just arrived. 1930's? (my assessment based on button loops not button holes as later examples had) Beck Northeaster Flying Togs Horsehide, wool and shearling lined Police coat in NOS condition. And yes I am going to wear this to get groceries later.....

Another picture from Instagram. I need to generate followers so I can start a collaboration with a leather jacket manufacturer. lol
Unfortunately instgram doesn't like the picture and doesn't show it in the hashtags. So it's not going to work out with the collaboration. ;)

Wow!

I recently came across another amazing Beck police motorcycle coat for sale in Japan. This one has removable collar and two way zip. Very cool badge holder and some other interesting features. Here's the link:

You are going about it in an entirely wrong way, @MrProper . You need to take some courses to become an electrician, a fireman, a construction worker, or a smokejumper. Having a great style alone just does not cut it in social media.
