The Embroidered Leica Jeans Jacket ~ 1974


I had nothing better to do one day and my wife had been doing some embroidery of late. "Gee, I can do that!" I thought.
The jeans jacket had already been tied up and soaked in a weak bleach solution to achieve that neat mottled look.
The Leica logo was soon emblazoned on the back of the jacket! Maybe I should have made that "Leica MC"?Anyway, a few months later there was also a big scorpion back there. I'm a Scorpio.
Then about a year later somebody stole my damned jacket! I still have the photos and that little Norfolk Island pine behind me is at least 100 feet tall now.
