How much did you pay for this jacket Bennarion? It was on EvilBay, and pictures from the auction description was good regarding pointing to the 70's ;)

Looks like there may have been a tag under the cleaning instructions, too.

So, was the Monte Stark only a patch, not the original tag?

This tag was sewn by hand, so I took it off. There was a hole under it. I think that was the reason to sew it on

The reason why the tag was there is related to the fact that the jacket was sold by re-seller Sporting Life LTD of Memphis, Inc. Looks like they were labeling goods manufactured by other companies with a label with this retro-looking chap that contains a logotype like this label. See an example:

Looks like they obtained similar jackets like these made by A&F [with this ugly and hideous zipper].

Can you share a sale price, I'm just curious.

I looked up Kirby Woods Mall, it's also in TN -- Germantown.

I bought it for $160. But not in this place anymore
Very good price, regarding this fur on the collar, it looks very nice. Enjoy, super cool one - except for the zipper ;) On some 50s g1 you can find similar fur [a bit shorter, thicker, and a bit coarse]. But it looks like an aberration for g1 in my opinion [a positive one, I personally like it even more].An example on the left [same contract].

Very similar to my jacket, only the cuffs are a little different.
Now I understand what kind of jacket it is. Willis & Geiger collaborated with Abercrombie & Fitch
