a beat up old leather jacket that's like twenty years...

Post by Vannevar »

old fetches:

"Among the non-Star Wars items sold was a leather jacket worn by rough and tumble movie hero Indiana Jones, played by actor Harrison Ford in Lucas's other hit movie series - it was snapped up for $124,000.

The jacket, worn by Ford in 1989's Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, had been estimated to go for only $52,000 to $66,000."

Indy's jacket went for $80,000. Vader's saber from ESB went for $100,000. Luke's ANH saber for $170,000. Yoda's cane $42,500. Just amazing!
