: : : : Just received my Indy shirt from Noel Howard. It looks great... very
: : : : lightweight material - ideal for the warm days of summer. The color
: : : : is definitely khaki, not "stone" as I have read... perhaps the color

: : : : If you're looking for an exact duplicate, this is the one. Thanks,

: : : Hey, does the shirt have a blue M.B.A. tag inside it just like
: : : the pants do? I'm going to order my shirt and whip carrier on
: : : Monday. By the way, did you ever receive your "free gift" from
: : : Herbert Johnson? I haven't seen heads or tails of it. Just wondering...
: : : How's your Poet doing? Mine's great!!! I still have to take it to
: : : the Ft. Worth stockyards for steaming, to make it look like the
: : : "Raiders" style. Talk to you later.

: : : Your friend,

: : Hi Dale,

: : Glad you're back! Yes, there is a tag (white with blue letters) like
: : the pants. I haven't received my HJ gift either... wonder if David
: : has heard anything. My poet is great - wear it most everywhere and
: : have received quite a few compliments on it (I wet the brim with cold
: : water and shaped it by hand... looks just like the Raiders brim).

: : Take care and let us all know your view of the shirt and whip holder.

: : Regards,
: : Professor Jones

: Cool! It DOES have a matching tag. I'm just a sucker for
: continuity and such. I kinda' hope that the free gift is a fine
: wooden handled hat brush that we can use to keep our Poets clean
: with. But whatever it is, it's certain to be high-quality.
: Herbert Johnson doesn't cut corners. By the way, does the shirt
: have khaki buttons, as seen in Raiders, or grey buttons like
: the ones in Temple of Doom? Not that it matters. A little detail
: like button color isn't going to sway my decision to buy it.
: (Sort of like how the current line of Wested jackets have bronze-
: colored zippers, as opposed to the silver zippers seen on the
: movie jackets.) Anyhow... I'll be sure to post a response about
: the quality and authenticity of the shirt and whip carrier as
: soon as the package is in my hands. Promise.

: -Your friend,

: Dale Dassel

: P.S.- The whip carrier DOES have silver snaps, right?

I would say the buttons on the shirt are very similar in color to those
on the pants (perhaps just a little darker). A hat brush would be
very cool (how about an autographed photo of Harrison in the Poet?).

I don't know about the snaps on the whip holder... pics from the film
look like they are silver.

Regards,
Professor Jones
