FiveStar Leather Looking for Recommendations on B6 Jacket

[Clark J]

I purchased one of his early D-1s with to small arms,,still waiting to see if he's fixed the pattern after purchasing an original. Oh and change the chest zipper to a #5 like all WW2 jackets used.

Just leave the decal for MASH Co.

We’re still waiting to see that Werber D-1 to be complete; as Shawn wrote on the Facebook group, he has the patterns already completed and he’s is waiting for a contract faithful label to be done.
I hope he will keep that fancy ABCD sizing.

Just leave the decal for MASH Co.

Also a USAF hand painted leather patch would be nice

Big news!
Shawn bought an original Aero Leather Clothing (Beacon) B-6. He said that in a few weeks after he receive it he will be able to have a prototype complete (maybe more).
Here’s a few pics of the B-6 (sorry for the bad quality, all pics are from eBay)
