Gents,
So, about 6 weeks ago a couple of brothers got ahold of me, and asked if I could reproduce the jacket that their father wore in WWII, flying 62 Bomb Mission on a B-24 out of Italy. The jacket was a Poughkeepsie in an unortunately small size for both brothers. I set to work, making the jackets, and ordered patches from my friend Roberto Bandecca in Italy. Nametapes from my friend Sean Collins in Las Vegas, and finally finished up the jackets and sent them off to another artist Joseph Patterson in Texas. The jacekts have been around the country a bit, but all in all came out very cool.
A BIG thank you to all of my friends that helped to make these gents very happy!
