Finally found a Lawrence without a Cobra Kai patch on it. And it isn’t my style. But they exist, that’s good.

I wonder if this maker is from Massachusetts??? Knowing that area is one of the leather maker historic hot spots and seeing similarity between this jacket and Fidelitys and Knopfs I have seen from the same area and era I am wondering if this brand was out of Lawrence, MA???? Not that the style is particularly distinctive with many makers doing this style. Its the name combined with the similarity that has me thinking its out of Lawrence, MA. Just a theory at this point........o_O

Yes. I believe so. That entire area, Lawrence, Peabody, Lynn had a bunch of makers. @Gamma68 has the distinctive Lawrence MC jacket in his possession.

Yeah totally. Its like, you have almost like hubs: the New England makers mainly out of Mass, the Chicago/Milwaukee/Detroit hub, and the California (Los Angeles and San Fran). Some smaller areas obviously as well like Minneapolis/St. Paul and Seattle etc. From what I understand, Lawrence is a pretty blue collar town (my friends from Mass call it "rough"). All these areas except L.A. are pretty damn cold. Not surprising that they would have a lot of outwear makers in these areas.

@Gamma68 please post a pic of your infamous LAWRENCE if you can when you geta chance.......
