Empire Canvas Works Shooting Jacket
A package just came for me, I was quite pleased to see that it was the Prototype Shooting Jacket that Kevin had put up for sale. After close inspection I must say that this jacket is wonderfully made, and quite distinct. I am so glad that Kevin put it up for sale and I was able to pick it up, thanks again Kevin it really is something. I was worried about the size, both my P.C. and Montrose Doublet are size 42, whereas my Argyll Jackets are size 40. This jacket is a 42 and I was not sure if it would be too big, however it does fit perfectly and I should be able to wear an Argyll under it.
Here are a few pictures:

Looks great paired with the IoS Glen!
Kevin's work is amazing isn't it?

If anyone is interested, I have a jacket exactly like this in the museum gift shop, size 42R.... it's just missing buttons on the front, is all.

Quite an impressive jacket! You wear it well McMurdo.
Congratulations. 
I have always tempered my killing with respect for the game pursued. I see the animal not only as a target but as a living creature with more freedom than I will ever have. I take that life if I can, with regret as well as joy, and with the sure knowledge that nature's ways of fang and claw or exposure and starvation are a far crueler fate than I bestow. - Fred Bear

It all has to do with using a Tripod and timer, I still can not get used to it, and yes I was breathing perhaps through my nose but still breathing nonetheless.
And the hair has been turning this way since High School.

...a smile now and then wouldn't hurt either!
