What about it specifically?

It doesn't take much to find pictures of it online, is there anything special about the label?

It’s a fairly well known label. It’s in the Schott book.

Book says the label is from the 60’s-70’s but you won’t find any horsehide perfectos from that era. Instead this label was used on police issued jackets. I’ve seen a few of them over the years.

Schott didn’t make the perfecto in horsehide from the late 50’s to the late 90’s/early 2000’s when they brought it back and then I believe this label was used again. Then the label design changed.
