    If it wasn't for the reverse looking like a grease filled die, I think someone had some extra time on their hands .

    I think a vise did most of that. But I'm still thinking. :)

    What happen to the bottom of Abes jacket, its not there and it should be, even if it was a vice job, I think ....

    Actually, to me it's the obverse that proves it was vised, and the reverse that puzzles me. Clearly, the ridge along the bottom of the jacket is the edge of the vise.

    Well its either a vice job with a grease filled reverse or a retained cloth strikethrough right. What else could be in contention?

    On a completely unrelated note, how did that vise I sent you work out?
