Clark Gable 1961 "The Misfits" Film Worn Denim Jacket and Pants

This is the Lee denim jacket and jeans that were worn by Clark Gable in the 1961 film "The Misfits" in which he starred with Marilyn Monroe and Montgomery Clift. The jacket and the pants bear the Western Costume Co. Hollywood labels, both with his name printed on it, with the jacket label giving his chest size and the pants label giving his waist and inseam measurements. The pants bear three Costume Company stamps as well as the Lee size 46 label. The jacket and pants show wear with small tears here and there which was most probably how they were prepared to look for Gable's look in the film. Very good condition. Comes with two photographs from the film showing Gable wearing the costume and a Gotta Have Rock and Roll Certificate of Authenticity.
