Bomber Jacket
So, I have this S&W leather bomber jacket. It is real leather, distressed look. Has Smith embroidery on it. Extra bag of snaps. It was given to a local dealer years ago. Anybody remember these?

If you search the S&W Accessory catalogs back through the 80s & 90s, you will see several variations of S&W jackets in the bomber style. Post a picture of your jacket and I may be a able to tye it to a certain catalog period. Ed.

fat tom, that is it! Mine also has the little fake fur slip on collar made from unicorn foals. Mine also has a small US flag on one sleeve. I read all the tags and knew it was real leather, I just didn't know when they were made. Like I said earlier, mine was given to a longtime dealer that I used to work for and I was trying to get a little info on them. Who was the company that made them? Wilson's? Maybe they have a plant in India...

I have no info on the jacket I'm afraid. I was told it was a promotional item given to upper-level stocking dealers in the early '90's. That's where I got mine. As an "upper-level buyer",I beat my dealer out of it.

Post a pic! You know, you do something long enough you acquire random ****. Then one day realize, holy ****, I have a lot of ****. Where did I get this ****? Your friends come over and admire your **** and you hold on to said **** even though you said you would put it in the annual neighborhood garage sale.
