I was looking into this interesting halfbelt design with the side adjusters morphing into the halfbelt. It seems to be a feature typical for 'Alaskan' jackets.

Then I noticed the same feature on this Westerner which was probably made by the same manufacturer.

Keen eye for the details as usual there Jacket Slayer! Those pockets look vaguely familiar too.

There's another maker who used this particular pocket design. I haven't found one with a label yet but I think these were all made by the same company (a different company than the one who made Alaskan labeled jackets).

This jacket on the Bill Kelso archive page was the one that I was using on my jacket design. It was the only one I had seen at the time till you posted these others.
