Description

One blacksmith's apron once owned by John Thomas "JT" Caley, blacksmith for the town of Brighton, New York. Apron is made of thick black leather and has two gromets at the top and leather loops where ties would have gone. In very good condition for its age. Some cracking along the outer edges and some tears in the front "split" of the apron with one piece having come loose but leather is still malleable and supple.
