Listed as no brand but I reckon it's a Schott 141. Photos are terrible but looks like it could have some nice colouration/ patina going on.

I had a Beck-Arnley. Very nice jacket. I have read that Beck morphed into Beck-Arnley after a merger and new focus on auto parts sometime in the 70s. I have read there is no connection. In any case, mine was quality. They are up your alley as someone who truly enjoys vintage cafe jackets. I think @technovox owned one, as some others. Hopefully they jump in. As does one of our jacket historians.

This is the only picture I have on my phone. Not the greatest pic but the jacket was nice.

That is the most mint Taubers I've ever seen. That is a very good deal for that jacket. As good a chunk of HH as you are likely to ever find.
EDIT: the tag claims genuine leather not HH...I suppose it could be steer. Either way an exceptional find.

Probably is steer. I've got several police jackets that are steerhide. Here is a Taubers police jacket from the 50s with a HH tag. It was sold here.
