A Clark Gable collar from Gone With the Wind MGM, 1939. Starched white cotton shirt collar bearing a label inscribed, "Tailored by / J.T. Beach / Los Angeles," with "Gable 20-108 M-124" inscribed in black ink to collar. Both on-screen and off, Gable was known to favor custom-made clothing fashioned by Hollywood tailor Eddie Schmidt, but his tailor-of-choice for screen-worn collars was J.T. Beach. The character of Rhett Butler is always impeccably attired, living up to his dashing status as a blockade runner and a man whose titillating reputation often prevents him from being received in respectable households. Accompanied by 2 photos of Gable wearing similar collars in the film. Provenance: the collection of Tom Heyes. 3.75 x 8 in.
