Finally cooler weather, so broke out the all original first contract May 1942 Bronco. Bronco's are super comfortable to wear, so if you can find one I highly recommend it. The bar tack stitching on the hanger loop is a cool Bronco feature and always fun to geek out looking at the M-42 Crown. Gary mentions in his book this contract was made from cowhide, goat and horse - I suspect this example is cowhide, but what do I know!

That's interesting, just thought I'd check my original Bronco (goatskin I think, pretty light jacket) and yes, the bar stitching is there.

NorShor A2 which arrived here yesterday.

I had the 2nd Covid jab Sunday but it's really knocked me for six so having an easy day today. The medics were adamant that lymphoma patients should have the jabs The 1st AZ jab during chemo was ok, but the 2nd some weeks after chemo finished - wow - not nice at all.

That second jab killed me for over a week.

You are too kind and I thank you for your generous offer but a better idea is to keep those bones and chew on them yourself, not only will you have healthy teeth and gums but doing so will distract you from stalking and irritating me on VLJ :D
My dental health is outstanding, no need for dog biscuits.

And I'm not stalking you, just working on freeing those dogs from their mundane life of kibble. ;)
