Hey guys, I recently stumbled across a 2008 version of the jacket at Goodwill. Obviously, it is a low-quality jacket, but its more screen-accurate than the one I have.
It looks just like the one on this listing, but it's only $20. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Indiana-Jones-L ... SwX~dWllYW
Any idea on where these were originally sold and if its worth the $20?

Looks like a lottery jacket some States gave out as prizes. Worth the 20-bucks.

But only $20... 
It's made from some kind of weird reconstituted leather fibres, for some reason that can be sold as 'leather' but it's not 'leather as we know it'.
That said it's actually a pretty good pattern.

Re: 2008 Jacket Version
If the jacket at Goodwill is indeed the same jacket as shown in the eBay listing, it would be worth throwing down a 20 dollar bill for IMO.. If anything, one could experiment with distressing techniques (I may not go as far as a washer / dryer treatment though) without much worry for certain.
