One of the distressed vests worn on screen by Bruce Willis in his role as John McClane in the 1995 sequel 'Die Hard With A Vengeance'. This vest was intentionally distressed by the costume department for use by McClane in the scene midway through the film when McClane and Zeus (Samuel L Jackson) are chasing some of Grubers henchmen through the streets of New York in a Mercedes. The scene featured a lot of rain and dirt, as such the contrast in colour between the section of vest which would have been tucked into McClane's trousers and the colour of the vest areas which were exposed is very apparent. This characteristic can be seen on other heavily distressed vests from the film. Provenance includes screen matching of dirt marks on the rear of the vest to those seen in the film. Please note - The display is completed by replicas of McClanes trademark Galco shoulder holster, Beretta and NYPD badge. |
