[Chris 55]

I've been lucky enough to get hold of one of these would anyone like to guess the maker or brand.

A top notch Aces High Irvin. Rare indeed! Enjoy it!

 

[stanier]

Is it the one that was for sale on Ebay last week?

 

[Heisenberg]

You are very lucky , I have been looking for an Aces High Irvin for a long time ...

Is it the one that was for sale on Ebay last week?

Yes waited 5 years for this.

Does anyone keep in touch with Jonnyboy or know how he's doing? He just disappeared to do something with his art and never came back. I hope all is good for him.

I'm going to send him a message at some point but from what I've seen he's still in France and appears to be ok.

Please let us know how he is if you do hear from him. I must admit I thought he'd come back to the UK but if he's enjoying life in France that's good. Wish him well from his friends here. Cheers

And tell him that he has a following here, if he ever decides to get back into making Irvin's again.

What makes it identifiable as an Aces High?

It was one of the finest repro Irvins made . It was better than an ELC in my opinion .

Hey Chris
Any chance of you doing about a 4 or 5 photo layout here on your Aces High Irvin so some of us can see the details of your jacket?

Was it not the roughwear and the Aero guy start up that made him fold . With that startup with roughwear ultimately folding also because of the dodgy business going on behind the scenes with Aero footing the expenses with out Kens knowledge .Or am I remembering wrong ,what ever happened it was a damn shame he stopped making them .

Oh man ... that’s opening Pandora’s box up again. You are in the ball park with your thoughts . Johnny Boys closing had to do with a few different things, of which you brought up a couple . But the threads are still in the archives for anyone to read .

 

[Bombing IP]

We what ever happened Burt we lost two makers of the Irvin in one shot , I will not bring up the Pandora's box as I do not remember it that well but as you say it's there to read if interested .
