Description

Liberace "Chandell" pants and jacket from Batman Season 2, Episode 15: "The Devil's Fingers". (ABC, 1966-68) Vintage original (2) piece ensemble including (1) S. Fisher brand black silk double breasted smoking jacket style coat with all over metallic gold pattern, solid black silk shawl collar, cuffs and integral front tie belt, 3-front slash pockets, interior with metallic gold embroidered "Liberace" with trademark piano, and (1) pair black wool tuxedo pants with black satin woven braid trim down each side and zipper front closure, retaining internal Acuna Hollywood bias label typed, "Liberace Sept 1966". Interestingly, these were Liberace's own clothes, which he chose to wear instead of the studio-provided costume as the garments weren't up to his famously exacting standards. In vintage fine condition. Provenance: Christie's, New York, Dec. 20, 2002, Lot 35.
