Tommy Lee Jones starred in the title role of "Cobb," the 1994 film that portrayed the great slugger in his retirement years, attempting to put his life story down on paper. This uniform is a costume from the film and is an excellent replication of an original period Tigers uniform. On the inside rear tail is stamped "Western Costume Co.," adjacent to which "Cobb T.L. Jones" and "69" have been stamped as well. Inside the waistband of the pants the same markings are present, as well as a "Mitchell & Ness" manufacturer's tag. The uniform is made of grey flannel and has a navy blue felt "D" on the left front breast and a United States flag patch on the left sleeve.
