That’s one I’m selling. Obviously will deal with folks here. This one is awesome. Not the teacore hide but grainier, more character than the Cals I’ve owned that were later built. If it sells, cool. If not, I won’t kick it outta bed.

£700 is a lot of money. But I would've hit BIN if it had some waist cinch. Field Leather Speedmaster Sheene?
Where is that bodybuilder gent who had a Kensington but wanted something slimmer at the waist?

It's unfortunate the shoulders of his jackets still look like what they do.
He made a big deal of reworking his patterns, but all the recent jackets i have seen show the same problems the old ones did...

Weird design. Very weird. Hercules?

Looks like a mix and match of design features.

Calling the Sears Hercules specialist @tmitchell59 have you ever seen a Hercules like this?

Never seen anything like this, at least what I can tell from the horrible pictures! I can say it is c.1950 with that label and zipper. What a very odd jacket. Looks to have a badge holder? Weird belt, weird pockets, just weird.

This is at a time when Sears was sorta "experimenting" with designs, perhaps a prototype for a new model. I have one early Sears MC jacket I don't think was ever in their catalog. I have seen another MC jacket with this label, but it is not the same jacket. I will look it up.

Thanks for posting this most interesting Hercules, certainly one for the Book if not the Back.
