1967



Take a look at Neil Young's jacket in this clip. Seeing Neil that spring when this song broke is one reason I took up leather work in 1967. I stood right next to the stage at the " Linger Longer", and saw the Springfield do this song .... 5 ft. from Mr. Young. The Seeds were the headliner that night ....... "You're Pushin' Too Hard"

Here's a jacket I made in the early 90's :
It's made from split oil tanned deer skin ... The Air Force uses this leather for helmet lining. It's the softest leather you'll ever feel. The fasteners are the tips of deer antlers.
