Pluto Posted May 25, 2018 Share #1 Posted May 25, 2018 recently rediscovered this garment I found years ago at the NYC Hell's Kitchen flea. Levi's type 2 jacket from the '50s. Combat Medic, I believe from the 28th Infantry Regiment, the 'Black Lions', 1st Infantry division. Vietnam veteran peace / protest material is an art-form unto itself - does anyone else have any other similar pieces, hats, jackets etc - to share ?

Nkomo Posted May 29, 2018 Share #16 Posted May 29, 2018 Seeing this thread reminded me of a jacket I picked up at my local Goodwill back in 1999. No information on who the owner was or anything unfortunately. Judging from the size, I always suspected it belonged to a woman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manayunkman Posted May 29, 2018 Share #18 Posted May 29, 2018 Bullockargart, is that a last name? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Austin R Posted June 2, 2018 Share #19 Posted June 2, 2018 Bullockargart, is that a last name? I have never been able to figure out what it means. I assume it is either a last name or bullock cart without a space (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bullock_cart). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
