Provenance:
Luster Bayless served as John Wayne's costumer on Rooster Cogburn, as well as more than a dozen others, including the Duke's final film The Shootist. Following the theatrical release of Rooster Cogburn, this piece was loaned to the 26-car American Freedom train exhibit, where along with 500 other artifacts, it toured the United States in celebration of 200 years of American history. It was subsequently returned to Hal Wallis Productions at Universal Studios, and after that, gifted by Hal Wallis' secretary to the family of actor Dan Seymour.
