Brand #28: The Waltons - season 4 part 2

 

Disc 2 is even better concerning Jim-Bob's bleached pair. But I encountered many disc issues on discs 2-4. Some pics of disc 4 coming soon. On disc 5 John-Boy wore for the first time "real" overalls with a shield back and quite baggy. I didn't remember that. Great pair. I never liked his simple faded tight pairs (at least 2) with low back and Boss suspenders.

The pattern is liberty stripes as a close-up show when hunker down in red shirt. Pic 1 at 2h01, pic 2 at 1h40 even better front+rear. Double episode 18 The Burnout.

I searched a lot but haven't found all these exact features. I assume brand Hercules (pocket hole usually different on left \ or |) or maybe Sweet Orr. Liberty stripes were shown in Montgomery Ward catalogue (vest back) but also used by others including OshKosh. The style is vintage 30s/40s, 2 small bib pockets, one with a flap. The tag was removed on the right. The pocket watch hole "/" on right is quite rare and used by Sweet Orr, N&W, Go-Pfor, Hawk Brand and The Boss (Cohn) but usually the tag is elsewhere. I have to recheck the rear.

I think Zeb wore Sweet Orr (pointed pocket) in season 2 or 3. In season 4 he wore Big Smith (with tag).

During research I found 11 more brands/manufacturers: Baker, StoneCutter (Universal) Chicago (painters/carpenters), Powr House (Ward), Lion Brand, The Boss (Cohn), Capitol City, Comers Limited, Bill Couch's (WW Couch Co. Lynchburg, VA), Homespun (Pittsfield, New Hampshire), Red Diamond (St. Louis), redrock (Big Smith). Most of these vintage pairs are very rare.

Update: Rear has a long diamond (both Sweet Orr and Hercules had).
