    Hidden in Plain Schott: the 613SH Perfecto

    Personally, I really dislike the underarm footballs, which were a clever invention/addition in the 80's. They're not really part of the original/classic pattern, and in jackets that are no longer meant for serious riding (Schott's are more a fashion piece now, than protective gear) the need to...

    Is this a Schott from 1983 or earlier ? Bo Brady /Peter Reckell

    Oh - trust me, I appreciate and am fully on-board with the humor of this when I started this little thread ! The show came on the air the same year I was born, and my maternal grandmother was the "O.G. Days Fan" in my family, who then passed the tradition/addiction onto my mom, with my watching...

    Is this a Schott from 1983 or earlier ? Bo Brady /Peter Reckell

    Well, those pix/screen grabs were from 1983, and if it was the actor (Peter Reckell) own jacket that he brought to the set - he probably had it for a while before getting the role. And who knows ? He may have picked it up used himself ! Thanks Again for all your AMAZING help - with very little...

    Is this a Schott from 1983 or earlier ? Bo Brady /Peter Reckell

    Wow ! I tremendously appreciate your wanting to dive in and help me solve this 40 year old mystery jeo ! I don't feel quite so dumb if you're equally perplexed ! The back is one solid panel - with a kidney panel, and it ends at the waist of the 5'11" actor wearing it. There are a bunch of pix...

    Is this a Schott from 1983 or earlier ? Bo Brady /Peter Reckell

    This year marks the 40th Anniversary of the 1st appearance of the rebellious Bo Brady character on the soap: Days of Our Lives, and the character & actor have been popping up a lot in social media - prodding my memory about something.... Born in 1965 - I'm 10 years younger than the actor Peter...
