This UNBELIEVABLE UNIT of a coat just arrived. 1930's? (my assessment based on button loops not button holes as later examples had) Beck Northeaster Flying Togs Horsehide, wool and shearling lined Police coat in NOS condition. And yes I am going to wear this to get groceries later.....

Care to post a few extra photos of the jacket please...
Is there storm cuffs? Does the lining open at the bottom? How are the sleeves lined - wool fabric or wool fur?

I'm going to do a separate post about it when I get a minute, but quickly: yes storm cuffs, yes liner open at the bottom.
I am totally gobsmacked by this thing; it's totally clean. Zero flaws.

Wow! What a specimen - are you wearing the coat or is it wearing you? Regardless, I look forward to the thread this beast deserves. Definitely a winner - congratulations to you. BTW, is that huge collar Bear fur?

it's been a long and snowy winter here in the western US (I'm not complaining!) but finally got the bike out for a bit this weekend...

This looks incredible!
This is exactly how a jacket must look when it is used in a species-appropriate way. I like it.
Incredibly cool! And in unbelievable condition, looks like it was made yesterday. What a find!

Nothing like a good batch of horsehide.

This one came out of New Hampshire. In the listing the seller suggested that it could perhaps be cut into a shorter jacket if one didn't like the length.....the husband said that it was Police Motorcycle coat from the Boston PD. I have French Exams this morning (how's that for Canadian), but I will try to take better pics and do a post about it this afternoon.
Incredible! Love everything about it!
