    My "Cut-Off" Collection 2018

    So here it is about 10 years after I sold off my first "Cut-Off" collection which had about 35-40 pieces.

    Accumulated these over the last 12 months. When time permits, I will add some close-up photos. These are really neat to study the various construction details, sewing techniques, etc.

    Best,
    John

    P.S. Left some room to add a few collar corners. These are always the hardest to find.

    Very neat collection my friend!

    Must be a lot of fun to go over each one scanning for the details!

    Regards from Guatemala!

            Nice ones John
            Give a man an opinion and you feed him for a day,
            teach a man to use the "search" function on the WAF and you feed him for a lifetime.

                        Indeed. There is something very alluring to me about authentic cutoffs. They reek of history.

                          Thanks guys. I will post close ups when I get a chance. Thinking a couple of more breast eagles and a few collar corners and I'm done.

                          Walter, if memory serves I think you ended with a couple of my old W-SS "cut-offs."

                          Best,
                          John
