bay coat, 8x10 archival print fashion photograph of vintage hudson's bay blanket jacket

Description

“bay coat” is one in a new, ongoing series of photographs, "the catalogue of collected style," which showcases various vintage items i've picked up over the years.

this is one of those very canadian icons that we all recognize: the hudson's bay blanket coat. now, i know they're making reproductions these days, but this is the true-blue, stripey vintage '60s deal. it's one of my favourite pieces, especially since i spent about 15 years looking for one in really good condition, so i'll admit i cringed a bit as i stuffed it with dead, overgrown plants and weeds for this shot.

about the photo:
specs
camera: pentax k-1000, 50mm lens
film: fujichrome velvia RVP 100, expired; cross-processed

this photograph is professionally printed on 8x10” kodak supra endura paper with a glossy finish.

all of my prints have a stamp of my logo on the back to ensure authenticity and each photograph comes packaged in an clear, acid-free re-sealable bag with an acid-free, white 50 point backing board made of 100% recycled fibre. it is shipped in a sturdy photo mailer to prevent damage during transit.

aside from occasional cropping, i don't digitally alter my images and my photography has a decidedly vintage bent. i shoot people, places and all kinds of unusual things.
