I sent you pictures with arrows. Did you not see them, or did not understand?

That must be fun trying to push a needle through that! Hope you have a thimble.You know I forgot to cut the pockets out inside the jacket before I sewed on the tapestries.

I can't wear those. I tried. They get in the way and often the needle pierces through them.

I saw them, I understood them. However what I was after was images of chariot lady attached to the jacket before any other tapestry had been attached on that side.
Just as an update I now dont need these images.

No, a seller online listed a bunch of vintage patches for sale. They said in the listing they originated at an LA punk boutique (seller is based out of Burbank). They had others listed from too that feature on that uncut sheet I had bought. Some of the others were stitched on the edges but unfortunately none of the ones from Marko’s jacket were.

Unrelated to the jacket. I am getting custom Marko chaps made. The leather worker was wanting as much info and pictures possible to attempt to recreate them. I was able to locate a couple production stills online. If anyone has anymore information or good pictures of the chaps please message me or let me know. Thanks everyone!

Little bit of an update from my end whilst I have some time.
So firstly, back on page 16 I recall that the promo pictures of Markos jacket had a black matador and I recall seeing one many years back. This is the tapestry.
Possible that they used a section of this or something very similar.
If anyone is making Davids jacket I've found the original watch with the correct face. They are Valencia's but it seems the difference is the straps, this one has links where as the others have a stretch metal, often associated with women's since its like a bracelet. I have been searching for this daily since the propstore had put up close shots of the watch, so probably 1 year or more so its quite rare. I'm homing in on the other but it's proven to be really annoying ha.
If anyone is making Paul's jacket I've discovered that the long chain on the right-hand side is from a 'Pith Helmet' or 'British Army' chin scale chain. Not sure what specific helmet its from because there are variations but essentially its 3 parts, A) scale chain links, B) Backing either leather or canvas, C) 6 extra loops. Whilst there are several of the same chains out there that are generic, these ones are backed by leather or canvas, looking at the jacket its up for debate but I lean towards canvas. This material is to keep the metal from wearing the helmet if propped up at the top and also the wearers skin. The 6 links are the adjustments for sizing. From the photos provided it seems brass in material but on some of pauls shots it looks chrome. Just want to say thanks to Pennywise & LostNSantaCarla for obtaining the images of Pauls jacket and also sharing some information, its really helped to build replicas.
I've also found some patches for Markos and also traded for other items. I know other builders have these patches but this is the first I've seen appear going on about 6 years so it is rare. Obtained a Skull and Anarchy sheet whilst looking for other patches it popped up but it seems that these were old stock from a closing business, the well could now well be dry on these. I've also found the viking patch but its the black version, didn't realise how small it was but its good to have because of the shading, metallic thread etc so I can study it and hopefully recreate a better version for digitalising new patches. On the 1903, there is 2 versions, A is the correct size, B is the slightly bigger with white threading on it, make sure you get the smaller 1903 (purchased 2x of the big ones ). There are other rabbit holes I'm currently looking into so hopefully can post about them sometime.
