Re: KOTCS Production Jackets

We knew. :TOH: Remember, you posted photos of the jackets in the case you had made in two past threads. You also admitted to being 'Mr. Sparks' in one of those threads. Nice items to own, that's for sure. Thanks for sharing again! Regards !Michaelson Thank you Michaelson. Some of the other comments...

KOTCS Production Jackets

I have always wondered when would be the right time to post about this ... Just for future generations sake, as well as for Indy fans, I am going to put up some pics of two of my Production Jackets from KOTCS. THESE ARE NOT REPLICAS THAT HE MADE FOR US FANS (YES, I HAVE ONE OF THOSE AS WELL -- AND T...

Re: Nowak Jacket Owners Thread

I didn't know if I should start a new thread or not, but has anyone previously posted hi-def images of the screen used/production jackets from KOTCS? From the different scenes I mean? I noticed that there are many threads examining the RAIDERS screen used/production jackets (Hero, Hawaii, BW). I rea...

Re: Original Jacket is my design and make.

What would it be like if someone 25 years from now made a statement that Steve Delk didn't make the Indy 4 hats. Would he be expected to prove it? Would he take offense to it? does anyone see Peters side at all? The problem is that a great many of Peter's statements don't add up. You can see contra...

Re: Original Jacket is my design and make.

Faststreetsofhongkong I am not sure the type of photos that you are talking about could really substantially prove anything. The issues at question here seem to concern the actual origins of the designs themselves (as the title of the thread suggests) and the usage of the jackets on screen. A photo...

Re: Original Jacket is my design and make.

I have watched with some amusement at certain US citizens attempting to make the original 'Hero' jacket a product of USA but I must tell you it was designed and made in England. Who is or what is Neil Cooper, i do not know, he certainly had nothing to do with the jacket I produced. It worked and be...

Leather Concessionaires from a guy in England, I traded to get it for some autographed Star Trek TNG items ... those people used to bother me constantly.

However, and this is my choice, I will not bounce comments back and forth in a thread that is meant to honor Tony. The case was Tony's idea...

Thanks. :TOH:

Sorry, semi-new here. Understood for future postings.

Not sure about re-sizing (I'm not the best tech guy), so I just put up links instead.

Last Crusade 21st Anniversary Whip from Joe Strain

Wow. Joe has done it again. After I had him do the Raiders 28th Anniversary whip last year, I knew that this was the next project. Here are the differences: *) The handle is 1/16th of an inch thicker. *) The distance between the knots is shorter by half an inch. *) The thong is thicker by almost an ...

Re: Where are the original Raiders jackets today?

From what Tony told me, NONE of my jacket was used in his Indy 1 jacket. His Indy 1 jacket is an exact copy of a production jacket ... which, unfortunately, mine is not. As for Harrison's reaction to seeing the jacket. Yes, he recognized the jacket. If I remember correctly, the conversation went som...

Re: Where are the original Raiders jackets today?

I just want to set the record straight, as I am "Mr. Sparks". My jacket is special, special to me because it reminds me of a time in my life when I was young, and a big fan of Indiana Jones. Now I'm a bit older, and am still a big Indiana Jones fan. Back to the Jacket. It is special becaus...

To answer the question asked, "how does she crack?" Honestly, right out of the Fedex box, it was like a whip I had been using for years or something. I actually took video of that moment. Maybe it is the whole "just like Indy's in "Raiders" feeling" ... but I love it an...

Strain 28th Anniversary Raiders Whip

I asked Joe Strain to make a color accurate Raiders whip, meaning not just the 8 inch handle, not just a bit thinner than most whips are made these days (compare to Harrison's fingers in the pictures below), but to match the two different colors of kangaroo hide (meaning the top knot is darker) as i...
