Finally got an A2 that I’m completely satisfied with. The fit is perfect with room to layer and move and the leather is beautiful. I’ll certainly be posting in show us your graining. Bought it here in the good ole FL classifieds.

That looks suspiciusly like my old Eastman "Slender" model. It should be a tag-size 42 How can it fit you so well?
Looks great on you! Please confirm that you have rarely seen a nicer hide...

I purchased from @Stone Lamar. It is a 42. I’m fighting at 5’10 165# right now.
I can confirm that this is the most beautiful hide. The depth is amazing. Generally i live very even graining but the slight variations here give it a really authentic feeling.

Levi Labeled Western Wear c. 60s/70s? I have seen this same jacket with a Woolen Mill label. I assume it was made for Levi using the Levi label. Beautiful Brown shades through out, great Western Yoke, nicely worked in hand warmer pockets.

Out on the porch for a dramatic Californian unboxing...

I meant to ask you about this one Terry. I have two in my watch list and seeing yours has pushed me to buy. I love these spearpoint blazers. Is it fairly warm? This shawl collar looks cool:

Yeah, that´s the one. I sold it on because it became to small for me. Exchanged for a 44 RMC, but I still miss the leather on the Eastman". When I bought it, I thought it was too lightweight (I only had two Horween CXL jackets by then...), but I soon got to absolutely love it.

Wear and enjoy in good health!
