: Thanks for the info dale. Also do you know anything about the wested leather jacket? how do I order one?

Okay, I'll tell you what I know. I ordered mine last month, so I
should be getting it in a few weeks. It is handmade, of course, and
constructed of soft, dark brown english lambskin, with a heavy YKK
zipper, which zips on the LEFT side because their jackets are backward
in the UK. And when you call, Mr. Botwright will ask you which inside
covering you want, cotton or silk. The silk is from Raiders, the
cotton linings were used in Temple and Last Crusade. You also have
to have someone measure you, because they need to know your height,
chest size, sleeve length, and the width across your back from
shoulder to shoulder. So, it's custom-tailored to fit you only. It
also has action pleats at the shoulders, and ti's partially split up
each side with an adjustable strap which allows for more freedom of
movement, it's an action jacket. Go to the X marks the Spot section
of this web page. Scroll down to the part that says The Jacket. There
you will find a special message from the jacket maker, Mr. Botwright,
and the address, phone number, and ordering information. By the way,
you will have to call the operator and give her the number you are
trying to call, and she will tell you the area code. Don't forget,
England is siz hours ahead of us in time. Whatever time it is here,
add six hours and that's what time it is in London. I woke some poor
guy up at 3:00 in the morning trying to order my Mk-VII satchel!!!
