Imagine owning this John Lennon circa 1964 suit.
The Beatles legend’s custom-made two-piece suit will be up for grabs Thursday by Nate D. Sanders Auctions – with bidding set to begin at $50,000.
The group’s tailor, Douglas Millings, made the gray wool, houndstooth tweed, four-button suit for the Fab Four icon.
Beatles’ manager Brian Epstein hired Millings to design the majority of the singers’ stage-worn outfits during the early to mid-1960s.
The suit has two D.A. Millings & Son labels sewn into the interior of the jacket. One label features the handwritten word “John” so the jacket could easily be identified when making costume changes during performances.
“John” also is handwritten in red ink on the pants below the fly zipper.
The auction lot includes a glossy photo of Lennon clad in the suit, along with a letter of authenticity from Madame Tussauds, where the suit was displayed.
