How much do you think this one will go for?

Looks like it's in great shape, a larger size (probably a size 44), and in horsehide. I've always wanted one of these two-tone jobs but I think that this one will go for a lot more than I can afford (at this time at least).

PLUS... I'm not even sure if this jacket would suit me. Seems to be cut pretty big in the middle and back, and it doesn't do much for the guy wearing it (don't know what would... a six-pack?).

I'd pay $300.00 without hesitation, but couldn't go any higher without trying it on first. My guess is that this will reach $1,000.00.

I love these 2-tone jackets, I had one back in 1978/79, the same as worn by many UK punk bands, mine came from the King's Rd, Chelsea, London and cost £25.00 back then. I swapped it for an original A-2 a few years later...regret it now as I haven't seen another like it. This one is different, more like the one worn by Johnny Thunders back then.

Johnny Thunders -- one of the all-time great rock stars.

For those who don't know, JT was a NYC born Italian who dreamt of becoming Keith Richards. Instead he got hooked on heroin and invented punk rock.

Wasn't it old Keef who introduced JT to the white horse?

For about $100 you could convert an all black jacket to two tone ,why spend $2500.00 .Take off what is needed to convert to white and use them as the pattern .

Anybody can get their hands on a fake or a repro. It's scoring a rare original that is the source of the fun. This applies to many things.

So it was you who beat out my bid of $3,000. That's what I get for posting on the VLJ.
