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 THERE ARE DIFFERENCES). Tony agreed to let me get two of three that he had. Here is what happened, as Tony told it to me, was that he got three jackets back during Production. For each jacket, he would make a new one and send that one back in its place. This happened on other projects, and sometimes he would wind up with either cast or stunt worn items back. In this case, two of the jackets are Harrison size (those are the two that I have), and one oversized one (which someone else got).
I have the original email from Tony showing me these three jackets, I will not post that email here (or anywhere else), but if this turns into anything, I am happy to have the admin of this forum to review the original email (as long as it is never posted anywhere).
The three photos are:
1) Taken by Tony in his work shop and sent to me of all three jackets:
2) One of the jackets in a plexi-glass case in my home:
3) A Genre Productions jacket bag:
I won't post full pics of the jacket bag, that would make it too easy for someone just to copy it.
I am sure that possibly someone might flame me for this, but I don't care, what was I suppose to do, never let the Indy community at large know where actual Production used Indy jackets are? I got them from a real friend, Tony, his work deserves to be seen by all.

Re: KOTCS Production Jackets
We knew.
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 are pretty negative (but that is your right to post your thoughts) ... It was because of my conversation with Tony regarding my Leather Concessionaires jacket in the first place that the fact came to light that Tony in fact got a original Raiders jacket and was going to do a run, I suggested 888 (which means luck in the Chinese culture). Anyways, it was during that conversation that I asked him if he got to keep any jackets from the Production and that is how this all come about. Also, I have never sold (or tried to sell) either of these jackets on eBay. And yes, my last name is Sparks. I don't see many people using there names on forums ... "Mr. Sparks" sounds like I need to go the principals office.
I am happy to have Michaelson PM me, and I am happy to present him with the original email from Tony and copy of the Fedex paperwork stating value of one of the jackets sent from Tony to me, that was filled out by Tony in LA. But that would be for Michaelson's eyes only though ...

Re: KOTCS Production Jackets
I sincerely appreciate your kind offer, faststreetsofhongkong, but there's no need to do that.
I don't keep correspondence sent to me, private or otherwise, and I take you at your word that you have such paperwork with your jackets.
Thank you very much for your offer!
