I have been in communication with JC briefly and he has some AMAZING B-3's in the works with hides he dyes, ages. They look just SICK (meaning amazing). The BEST B-3's I have EVER seen!!!! I was not in the market for a B-3 but would have bought one that I saw pics of had the size been right - oh crap but lucky for the pocketbook I guess. I am sure John will post details about these new creations when he's ready. The guy really is incredible and he keeps raising the bar ........how?

...and it's not my Monarch A-2, sorry to get your hopes up! 
A little while ago, John got in touch with me because he had an Acme B-6 that he'd made for himself, but it was a little tight, and so he wanted to offer it to me. I dithered a bit (but not too long!) and accepted.
As a bonus, it was made with an original Kwik zip slider on a repro chain, and has original Talon side zips and United Carr snaps.
Needless to say, I'm thrilled with it. I'm shocked I managed to find a B-6 repro this nice.

Wooow! Great !
It is gorgeous!!! The size just looks perfect.
I am so happy for you.
What is the size on the tag ? 44 ?
I guess it's pretty comfortable and nice to wear ? As warm as your other sheepskin jackets ?
Can't wait to get mine (an Arnoff, hopefully next spring).
