1930's Vintage Horsehide Leather Jacket

Ooooohhh mama! This barnstormer style jacket has been the object of my affection as of late and I've been scanning the auctions for one like this every day. Made by Sterling Outdoor Clothing for J.C. Penny Co., it popped up in the last 24 hours. Even the mouton collar is nearly perfect!

This incredible button front horsehide jacket sold recently for just under $1,500 on eBay. Even though the buttons and lining are not original, it's rare to find a jacket of this era in such clean condition. The combination of belted back and button front also contributed to it's high value. Congrats to the lucky winner!

1930's Horsehide Harley-Davidson Riders Jacket

Rare in any condition, this one is simply incredible and it's no surprise this recent auction ended at an even $5,200! According the auction listing the original owner was killed in the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. His mother held on to it for many years and it has been in storage since then. I haven't had a chance to look, but I'll bet this is in Rin Tanka's "Harley-Davidson Book of Fashions 1910's - 1930's". I'm sure the winner was thrilled to get this jacket!
