1917 Print Ad for J.L. STIFEL & SONS Indigo Dyers and Printers: Stifel's Indigo Cloth and Miss Stifel Indigo

1917 Stifel print ad. Love the over-sized Stifel boot stamps see on the gentleman's overall cuffs. Likely not found on the actual overalls. Nice example of early branding.

VINTAGE CHANGE BUTTON RAILROAD ENGINEERS JACKET

Vintage Railroad Engineer 3 pocket chore/work jacket. Another fine example of now you see it now you don't.
3 pocket design with 2 lower patch pockets and single left side upper watch pocket with side entry and pencil slot, change buttons with ring retainers and locomotive embossed brass button facings dated 1918 along with the honest wear & tear, patina and whiskered denim obtained from decades of real world use are just a few of the desirable features on this killer piece.
