Back in the summer I bought a size 42R original RW B-3 from the 42-18653-P contract. It is in well preserved condition, but I did have to replace the left cuff using shearling from a wrecked B-3. I like the contrasting russet hh facings and the dark seal finish to the shearling. Unlike many USAAF shearlings this one is wearable, although I would not wear it on a regular basis for obvious reasons. I discussed the jacket with Tim at Duxford last Sunday and he was keen to see some pictures. So here we go Tim.... 
An indoor shot which brings out the russet colour of the facings better.
