La gazette du Grizzly (part 9)



Time goes by… Grizzly too…



When Heller's café /Warehouse decided do copy the incredible Buttoned front and belt back "Leatherkraft inc." grizzly jacket, of course, challenge was to find the model in japan, the money enough and to buy it…
Last year on Yahoo japan for Half the price, Mister FCC could have completed his "antique" jackets collection…


















 Now he is proud to wear one of the first modern winter leather jacket made in the early 30's.







Today ebay action for this similar 30's grizzly. Only 152$ for a size 36 and a bad sheepskin condition.
Tempted to buy but hard to sell destroyed and small jacket…Jacket will go to japan…of course!

La gazette du Grizzly (part 8)


The King…The best one for Mister FCC !
"NOT AN IMITATION AND NOT IMITATED" is still true for this early 30's jacket…!!!!
Cushman Japanse brand tried to copy two K-OF models, but it was really not a success…
Never in his dressing room but only on his collection of photos, King-o Fur jacket is one of the last piece King of French Cancan still looks after !!!!!!
