President, Jew & Property of Jew [Two Outlaw Biker Vests]

np: np, nd. Two denim vests with felt and cloth patches and "MC" written in unknown hand on back of "Property of Jew" vest. Each approximately 22 x 28 in. Very good. Item #5459

Two exceptionally rare examples of pro-Jewish sentiment in a subculture known for its frequent allusion to Nazi imagery. One of the vests sports a Star of David and a patch simply stating "Jew"; the other is boldly embroidered with "Property of Jew" on a skull patch. We could locate no record of this presumably small underground motorcycle club.

Unique examples of the most distinctive outlaw fashion of the 20th Century providing a lens into an under-examined subculture and an incredible piece of the story of Jewish people in America.
