Bonds Fifth Avenue Leather Rocky Balboa Coat/Jacket - Not a Replica

Description: Bonds Fifth Avenue Leather Rocky Balboa Coat/Jacket - Not a Replica - Ultra Rare In the Rocky movies, Sylvester Stallone wore a Bond's Fifth Avenue Coat EXACTLY like the coat I listed here. It wasn't a coat that looks like this. It was the EXACT same type/style as this Bonds Fifth Avenue Coat. This is not just any coat. This Bond's Fifth Avenue leather coat is identical to the one Sylvester Stallone wore as Rocky Balboa. It is crucial to recognize that Stallone didn’t wear a production-made jacket; he wore one exactly like this, purchased off-the-rack. I shared a video (below) from the 2021 auction where you can hear the auctioneer confirm that the coat Stallone wore was "his" store-bought coat—just like this one. This is an identical coat. Own a Piece of Cinematic History In your grasp lies the chance to claim an extraordinary piece. The Bond's Fifth Avenue coat is an icon of film history. This Bond's Fifth Avenue coat is not merely reminiscent of, but an exact contemporary of Rocky Balboa's iconic apparel, meaning that it's not a replica but an actual BFA jacket (not screen used). Acquired in the cultural heartland of Los Angeles, CA, this jacket is the very embodiment of the timeless style seen in the "Rocky" saga. Meticulously crafted by the original manufacturer, every seam, button, and stitch mirrors the movie's jacket with unwavering precision. This medium to large-sized, aromatic piece, boasting a 42-inch chest, still exudes the fresh scent of new leather—a rarity for vintage attire. Its condition is remarkable, with only a couple of minimal wear marks that in no way detract from its grandeur, but rather add to its authentic vintage character. These slight signs of wear are documented in the accompanying images, testifying to its genuine and well-preserved nature. Unparalleled Authenticity This coat's fidelity to the screen version positions it as an unparalleled gem to collectors. It remains unmatched in its historical precision and integrity, standing out even without a "screen-used" label. In contrast, the jacket sold at Heritage Auctions for $43,000, despite its "screen-used" claim, lacked the screen accuracy aficionados seek—it featured an incorrect button on the lapel that should not have been there, as it was not on the jacket in the movies, a discrepancy from the original design seen on films. The jacket offered here, however, is free from this inaccuracy, embodying the exact design—down to the finest detail—of the jacket worn by Sylvester Stallone, making it a true collector's trophy. Pricing and Value With such an unprecedented level of authenticity to the jacket seen in the films, coupled with its superb condition, this Bond's Fifth Avenue jacket justifies an ambitious valuation. Hence, a Suggested Starting Price: $20,000 to $25,000 is proposed, inviting serious collectors to own an authentic Bonds Fifth Avenue jacket exactly as seen in the legendary, "Rocky" movies. Embrace this golden opportunity to own an item that not only conjures the aura of the "Italian Stallion" but also celebrates the craftsmanship of a bygone era.

Measurements: Shoulder to shoulder: 19.5"Underarm to underarm; 23"Length base of collar to hem: 32.5" Believe me when I say this is a once-in-a-lifetime chance. The odds of finding one of these are so low, you'd be better off saving up to buy one from a Heritage auction for 150,000 but I'm sure in a few years it's be much higher. Add this to your collection while you can. The opportunity will not come again. Good luck!!! Note: Coat is sold as is, with no returns.
