Nice collection of original jackets

A good friend of mine who has been a long-time collector of US Airborne items has recently ventured into collecting USAAF gear. He called me this week so I could check out a number of original jackets that came with groupings (photos, caps, medals etc) that he had recently purchased. Some nice artwork especially, the A-2's were all in good condition especially a plain size 42 that I tried on and am trying to convince him to sell me in the future! I quickly photographed them when he visited me today, the light wasn't great but hopefully you can see the quality. To say I was green with envy would be an understatement!

Thanks for sharing, Paul. I don't think I've ever seen a B-3 painted up like that...usually they just have the AAF on the left shoulder (sometimes no even that).
