Guns N' Roses Crew Leather Jacket

[williambailey]

I was just offered whether I want to buy this jacket.? Just wondering if someone has seen one of these before, can tell me anything about it or knows what it's worth?? I'm pretty keen on buying it so any help would be appreciated.

According to the guy selling it he bought it about 20 years ago and it's a Crew Tour Jacket from the Appetite days.? The cross and the logo on the back are both embroided onto the jacket.?  Here are some pics:







I noticed EIL had something similar for sale at some point (unfortunately no price for it) however the one on eil wasn't leather it was woollen - here is their description for it:

GUNS N ROSES Logo Tour Jacket (Rare circa 1987 vintage US black woollen popper-fastening baseball jacket issued exclusively to tour personnel only with leather sleeves, elasticated collar, cuffs and waistband, a quilted lining and angled open side pockets. The 'Appetite For Destruction' cross image is boldly embroidered on the right breast with a logo patch measuring 10" in diameter on the back.

I would assume this one being leather it would be worth more and perhaps rarer too.

Ok - the guy is asking $350US for it, I'm seriously thinking of buying it.  It would be cool to wear to the GN'R concerts here in Australia in June.

Well it's a nice looking jacket...for that reason alone i would buy it...but i have doubts whether it's original...
