Rau Co Provo RI snaps

[Harvie]

Does anyone know where I might get a couple of eyelets and posts made by this company for use on A2 jackets? These go on the pocket leather sewn to the body of the jacket.

They are marked RAUF CO PROVO RI on the bottom of the posts.

Lost Worlds uses them on some of their A2 jackets and the ones on my jacket separated when unsnapping the pocket.

I will also check with Lost Worlds but they usually have $50 min parts purchase.

Thanks for the help

I do not need any anymore.

The fellow who answers the telephone for Lost Worlds Inc is sending me 4 complete snap sets for the repair, free of charge, and apologised for their failure.

Now that is great customer service.

for anyone needing pocket or collar snaps for their jackets

They are line 20 snaps and many are on eBay or you can get from Tandy leather. You need 3/16 length to go through the thickness of the leather.
The Tandy antique style matches very close to the factory snaps. When installing double "crimp" or "stamp" for the installed snap to fully grab the leather and not turn.
