: : : Just received my Indy shirt from Noel Howard. It looks great... very
: : : lightweight material - ideal for the warm days of summer. The color
: : : is definitely khaki, not "stone" as I have read... perhaps the color
: : : will lighten a little with wear and several washings.

: : : If you're looking for an exact duplicate, this is the one. Thanks,
: : : Noel.

: : : Regards,

: : Hey, does the shirt have a blue M.B.A. tag inside it just like
: : the pants do? I'm going to order my shirt and whip carrier on
: : Monday. By the way, did you ever receive your "free gift" from
: : Herbert Johnson? I haven't seen heads or tails of it. Just wondering...
: : How's your Poet doing? Mine's great!!! I still have to take it to
: : the Ft. Worth stockyards for steaming, to make it look like the
: : "Raiders" style. Talk to you later.

: : Your friend,

: Hi Dale,

: Glad you're back! Yes, there is a tag (white with blue letters) like
: the pants. I haven't received my HJ gift either... wonder if David
: has heard anything. My poet is great - wear it most everywhere and
: have received quite a few compliments on it (I wet the brim with cold
: water and shaped it by hand... looks just like the Raiders brim).

: Take care and let us all know your view of the shirt and whip holder.

: Regards,
: Professor Jones

Cool! It DOES have a matching tag. I'm just a sucker for
continuity and such. I kinda' hope that the free gift is a fine
wooden handled hat brush that we can use to keep our Poets clean
with. But whatever it is, it's certain to be high-quality.
Herbert Johnson doesn't cut corners. By the way, does the shirt
have khaki buttons, as seen in Raiders, or grey buttons like
the ones in Temple of Doom? Not that it matters. A little detail
like button color isn't going to sway my decision to buy it.
(Sort of like how the current line of Wested jackets have bronze-
colored zippers, as opposed to the silver zippers seen on the
movie jackets.) Anyhow... I'll be sure to post a response about
the quality and authenticity of the shirt and whip carrier as
soon as the package is in my hands. Promise.

-Your friend,

Dale Dassel

P.S.- The whip carrier DOES have silver snaps, right?
