YES! I have one too! It says "Leather Concessionaires" on the label, right? I too, got mine through Lee Keppler, though since a friend of mine waited a year and a half for a jacket from him, I don't think I'll do business with him again. However, after I got mine, I then learned about Wested, and when I contacted Peter Botwright, he confirmed that they used to be called Leather Concessionaires back when they made the movie jackets and right up through the early 90's, so I've always kind of enjoyed the fact that my jacket is just a "Little bit" more accurate than a "Wested" label jacket! Sorry you have to sell it, but congratulations on your expected new arrival!
