LEGENDS LORE & LIES. Australians and Their Driza-Bones
Sydney The Watermark Press A4 hardcover 1st Edition 1992 144 pages illsts. People often incorrectly call the famous coats 'dryazabione' but at least they know the clothing line one of Australia's best-known. This is the story of the coat given its birth almost 100 years ago when a Scottish sailor fashioned waterproof coats out of torn windjammer sails. One might say a nice early example of recycling! The coat became an Aussie staple and is now worn around the world. Very good copy with a couple of tiny spots of colour loss at the bottom of the front board. The dust-jacket has slightest of shallow creasing at back and is lightly marked inside but nothing serious. ISBN 094928419X. hardcover
