Lot 15: Muhammad Ali Signed Limited Edition Leather Jacket by Jeff Hamilton
ITEM DESCRIPTION
|
||||||||||||
Intricate and brightly colored appliquéd designs embellish this
striking, limited edition (24/100) Muhammad Ali-inspired leather
jacket. Designer Jeff Hamilton pulled out all the stops with this
one. The front left breast of the jacket says "The Greatest of All
Time" with two boxing gloves connecting on each side of globe.
Lappets on the shoulders are designed as US and Soviet flags with
flags of other countries moving down each sleeve. The cleverly
designed cuffs appear like those of boxing gloves, complete with
laces. Finally, on the back is a smart likeness of Ali, emblazoned
with "The Greatest" across the shoulders. Ali has signed the left
boxing glove on the back portrait and it is mint in black Sharpie.
The jacket is a men's medium. The most intricate appliqués on the
front breast show very slight wear at the edges and the "s" and "t"
of "The Greatest" on the back of the jacket has a small amount of
rubbing. The silver stars studding the jacket as well as the snaps on
the front and lappets show a bit of oxidation. These issues are small
and this gorgeous jacket is over all in EX to NM condition. Perfect
for the Ali fan!
