The twenty-sixth best item in my collection as of Jan 1, 2017 is this classic custom made original 1970's East West Musical Instruments Co. Suede Jacket. Legend is this - in the 1970's Terry - shown in the last photo in 2016 holding the jacket - was at a party and a rodeo star comes in wearing a RWB suede jacket somewhat similar to the one I acquired. Terry expresses great appreciation for jacket and lo and behold, the man standing next to him is the designer for the iconic East West Musical Instruments Co.! Who says - I can make you one like that, and this is the end result. Only downside is it does not bear the label as it was never made for retail. Question is why didn't I ever go to parties like that? Wish i could find where I wrote down the designers name. Great period jacket.
