    These jackets are pre war. 1930s typical german Cosack style. Mine is HH and size US36. If these jackets are offered, most of them are smaller than US40. A very thight fit was popular then.

    Something different. 1930s german Sport jacket. Labels weren´t often used back then. Many jackets were tailored for the buyer by family companies. Has Rapid zippers.

    No label at all. It is relined. But there is the D-pocket on the left side. No additional pocket as on the HD. Buco style.

    Here are photos of my early 50s Grais. The leather of this D-pocket is bulletproof thick. Love the lightplay on that rich black color. I wear it for cold weather riding on my Indians.
