Hi all. Wanted to introduce myself here on the forum , and put it out there to any and all collectors of vintage Levi's that I have an intact pair of Spring Bottom Levi's that I found back in 2013-ish in the crawlspace of an early settlement home (that had been built onto over time) in Logan, Utah. While I am a collector, and Hunter of all things old, and have always thought these jeans were such a neat find - I also recognize the historical significance of these jeans. That they need to be in the hands of someone who can properly care for, and appreciate these Levi's. Therefore, I am going to look at selling them, and officially invite anyone to this thread with questions, offers, or even just friendly advice

| Mine are similar to the ones on eBay but those looked less worn. Mine have some holes and a few patches or self repairs from original owner. Other noted difference is mine have a leather reinforced looking straps, rather than the all denim straps on his from what I could see. Again, I will try and add some photos here if someone would be so kind as to give me some advice on the easiest way to do that |

| I've uploaded images on imgur, then copied and pasted http to box here that says "enter web address of image" but it's not seeming to work for some reason. |

| That forum function “helpfully” adds the http:// for you which means unless you clear that, the copied imgur link also includes http:// thus doubling it up in the code. Make sure to clear the http:// in the forum box, then paste the imgur code in the box. |

Yeah I noticed that when I pasted the copied address, so I did erase one of the http.. still didn't seem to work. So sorry guys! I haven't been on or used any forums like this since probably about 1998 or so lol |

Hey Scott, I've edited your original post to include the photo you were trying to link. Next time while using imgur right click and copy the image address and use that link to upload.

| Hey Scot- we have 2 published books on SanFrancisco made work clothing, during the time period of 1860’s through the 1920’s. We have been working on a Levi book for 6 years now, I’m interested in this pair for our book. I’ll send you a PM |

Scot- for myself, information is number 1 I gained knowledge from your photos- and I thank you for that. This is a community with long standing members It’s generally frowned upon, for a new member to blow into town, Mine our knowledge, then ride into the EBay sunset. We really should have a Denimbro disclaimer? After all that- welcome Scot Scot I’m not saying your what’s in the disclaimer^^^^ I’m saying the sign blew down- and you might have missed it |

00 - Maynard anyone one? If you have some free time, and you want to elevate my quick disclaimer. Feel free I was thinking, we can have this canned, and post it, on a case by case basis? |

I was working on a deal, I ended up, passing the deal onto another friend. I’ll get my pictures, and it saved me driving 1,000 miles in one day to go pick them up. |
