An Elvis Presley leather jacket with label from Hercules Outerwear by Sears. The black motorcycle-style jacket has a red quilted lining, three exterior pockets and zipper at front with a belt. The jacket is believed to have been purchased in the 1950s and was given to Memphis Mafia member Dave Hebler in the 1970s. According to the accompanying letter of authenticity from Hebler, Presley asked Hebler to help him clean out his closet full of jumpsuits. Hebler saw the jacket and asked why it was there, since it was out of place with the jumpsuits. Presley replied that it was there as a reminder of his youth and image as the King of Rock and Roll. Also present is a letter of authenticity from the Elvis-A-Rama Museum. Size 42. Categories:
