Looking for opinions

Just had this jacket, offered to me, but wanted to solicit opinions as to whether it’s an original and who is the maker
Very interested in what people can tell me

It’s an original Perry 1756. Not sure those patches are original to the jacket.

I don't think the patches are original to the jacket

Looks like a pretty good hide.

Looks like there's a patch under the patch on the breast.

Turns out this is a scam as I suspected the seller calls himself, Matt Turner, everybody please beware

I would never buy it.
Too small, too beat up, funky chicken patches. I favor things I could wear.

I am not much of an A2 fan although the repro market is rife with older folks who look pretty silly wearing them, in my opinion.
