The seller has an offer option. I have asked him if the jacket is an original made by the Los Angles based Trojan Sportswear Company
Can't recall if I have shared this already but this seller has these fantastic looking Vanek jackets, going real cheap. That's the same jacket as the one I got. Can't recommend it enough. Construction and fit wise, this eats most other makers for breakfast. Moleskin lined, full of really neat features and details.

jeez that is beautiful. Makes me want to trade in my newer 118 for this. But in my mind I think, someday mine will look like this too (minus the the talon zips).
Dont think this model has the underarm footballs which is nice too since I don't ride and don't need that extra motion.
Hmmmm....
As a total noob, what's the ballpark for a Schott of this vintage? I have absolutely no idea of what's market when it comes to vintage leathers.on my watch list. I got to sell off some stuff though before even thinking about bringing anything else in. I got 3 jackets in the mail right now LOL that I swore are my last for a while (yeah right). Keeping my eye on it though. Doesn't look like it's got a mark on it either and yeah those stars, you can get them from Schott to replace.
edit: just noticed, probably not a big deal, but the sleeve zips don't match. I think the left one was replaced? Looks more brass and different shape the main and other zip.
I was watching it. Glad someone picked it up to end the temptation.

300-400 is what I usually see them around. depends on condition, model number, talon no talon, etcAs a total noob, what's the ballpark for a Schott of this vintage? I have absolutely no idea of what's market when it comes to vintage leathers.
