Description

Arnold Schwarzenegger distressed biker jacket from The Terminator. Arnold Schwarzenegger distressed biker jacket from The Terminator. (Orion, 1984) This jacket was custom made for Arnold Schwarzenegger for his role in the blockbuster, The Terminator. The studio distressed, black leather jacket has exposed aluminum zippers, three outside zippered pockets and one snap patch pocket and zippered sleeves. Lace up side panels. An integral leather belt with brass buckle threads through loops ringing the waistline of the jacket. The lapels feature black snaps at their corners. Screen-worn in the famous "I'll be back" scene at the police station. There were a few versions of this jacket made with increasing studio-distress to reflect damage suffered in the chaotic gunfight that ensued. This jacket is in an advanced state of distress with 8 bullet holes distributed in front, back and right arm. Inner lining shows remnants of bullet hits or "Squibs" including black tape and stage blood. In production used, very good condition. Comes with an LOA from a police officer who acquired the jacket at The Retake Room in 1984.
