So glad this is too small for me. Few Taubers detachable collar seem to have survived, or not order, or just lost. I've had one older than this. Sold it. It was a beautiful leather jacket. This one does not say Horsehide. It is probably early to mid 60s, with this label, zipper, leather combination. Taubers was producing jackets of Quality till their demise. They never really stopped, just fade away. The belt looks cool, but no mention of when they met. I don't know how to identify belts like this.

I have never owned a 'cheap" Taubers product and that Spans from near the beginning to near the end 1941-1990? My favorite jacket is a Taubers.

I have no idea if they are worth the price, but they are worth the look. A piece of American Motorcycle gear history. That is what they did.

Compare this jacket with other makers of, say 1960,

I've been sick, I guess I need to throw out something positive. I don't think I got anything on the jacket. It isn't even mine.
