It’s a challenge for me as well. I can do, like most folks, the 60’s and later. The cuts pre 1960 we’re just so much different. A harder nut to crack for sure. For me though an original piece just feels so much more...I don’t even no what the word is. If I was told I could only keep one, it would be this one and I wouldn’t hesitate or likely even miss the rest. I just really like the feeling I have wearing this jacket...I just don’t get it from the others. Not sure why.
@AbbaDatDeHat put it nicely, "The squeak of old leather when you breath, the second skin glove fit and that old friend feeling".

Hmm i have this theory again , leather jacket is getting more drape and softer just by hanging on a hanger affected by gravity and probably air aging it. I dont remember the back panel to be so broken in last time, and i dont wear this jacket a lot.
