    MAGNIFICENTLY embroidered 1960's original protest jacket created by the original owner's then girlfriend in Philadelphia. She was an artist - which seems obvious. Some of the finest embroidery I have found. The camel cigarette pack for a pocket is inspired, and also shows how times have changed. The "hippie wreath" in back she created by tearing a hole in the inner lining!?! The landscape embroidery on another pocket I had not noticed until shooting these photos this morning. A work of art that had hung in this man's closet for DECADES even when he retired to Florida - next to his father's military uniform. Nice addition.
