Vintage Bob Marlby belt buckle – New Old Stock Thailand 1970s
Here is a totally atypical and delightfully quirky object: a vintage Bob Marlby belt buckle, produced in Thailand in the 1970s.
These loops are part of those popular creations designed to ride the wave of reggae and counter-cultural iconography of the time, with an approximate spelling like only our Thai friends know how to do, which gives them all their slightly punk charm today.
Made in small quantities for the local market, they feature the iconic colours red, yellow and green (and blue...why?) , in a graphic style typical of the seventies, naive, joyful and resolutely underground.
These pieces are offered in New Old Stock : never worn, preserved since the time, with slight marks related to storage, guaranteeing their authenticity.
A collector's item in its own right, this loop appeals to fans of 70s vintage , reggae culture, as well as collectors of unusual and repurposed objects from Asian folk crafts.
A track that doesn't strive for perfection, but fully embraces its free, irreverent, and unconventional spirit. With this loop, you'll be a star at reggae festivals :)
