    ***NOTE-Hope this hasn't been posted here before-hate to clog-up the old Forum.
    Dating from 1893, the remarkably preserved denim jeans are the only known pair of virtually unworn 19thcentury Levis in existence.
    They were sold privately by Daniel Buck Auctions in Maine to an anonymous buyer in south-east Asia, who reportedly paid in the region of $100,000 to add the jeans to their collection of vintage Levis.
    Most pristine pair of 19th century blues I've ever seen. LEVIS.jpg
