Tombstone Val Kilmer / Doc Holliday Costume

Here are the two fabrics I have bought that will be made into the shirt and vest that Doc wears in the Funeral Procession. This should be a very sophisticated outfit when it is all finished :cool:

Just spent another $120 for a vintage Victorian watch chain just so I could take off some pieces just to add them to my existing vintage Victorian watch chain. I think I am into this chain now for something like $600 and I am still looking for the perfect Victorian watch to attach to. :oops:

JohnHoliday, here is a bit of trivia that I found a bit shocking:

"For years, Stetson worried about the waterproofing, and finally decided to make his hat of beaver felt. It took about 42 beaver belly pelts to produce a high quality hat. Because of the tight weave of most Stetson hats, it was waterproof enough to be used as a bucket. Stetson featured advertising of a cowboy watering his horse with water carried in the crown."

I have known this for over 30 years, as this is when I started wearing Stetson hats
 
Found this while going through some of my things the other day, as this was going to be my Doc Holliday rig before I went insane. I never did buy the Cimarron Doc pistol that went with this setup, so I just stuck my little Heritage .22 in it. I guess this one will go in the extra holster box as I now have no use for it.

DOC'S HUCKLEBERRY SHIRT

So, the photos above is a shirt I had custom made (not by my friend, but at the end of the day I wish I would have had my friend make it as things did not go well).

Because things did not go well, I will be doing the CORRECT Huckleberry shirt myself, along with the CORRECT Doc Holliday vest as that didn't go well either. I will go into more detail on these mishap projects as time goes on, but be assured that I will get what I seek............ ;)
