I am not sure if this really qualifies as vintage, or whether it deserves to be posted at all, but it may amuse somebody!!
Here are a couple of pictures of a jacket. I was given (/ scrounged / blagged, or possibly even nicked............) at a sound check at the Hammersmith Palais way back in October 1981, from Arturo Vega the Ramones artistic/Lighting director...
( It was I should confirm taken with consent although possibly under duress.... Certainly not resented, as for may years I conversed and occasionally met up with AV)
As can been seen the jacket lived a fairly hard life, and to be honest I hadn't thought anything of it until one of my kids following the recent death of Tommy R said "didn't you have a jacket from the Ramones once?"
So after 10 days of digging about here it is!! Along with a ticket from the gig, I also got copy of their first picture sleeve single.... Blitzkrieg Bop signed at the same time. There was also a tee shirt, that has long since disintegrated!!
The American eagle was on the jacket when I acquired it! The other small pin back is a band I used to play in the same time, oh for the musical ability I lacked...
Anyway I thought I would put some pictures up out of curiosity... One very beat up jacket!!
