BOB KEESHAN JACKET AND PANTS WORN AS “CAPTAIN KANGAROO”. - (CBS-TV, 1955-1992) Navy blue jacket with four gold buttons down the front, oversize pockets trimmed in silver piping and a silver “Captain Kangaroo” badge at the left lapel. The pants are navy blue with silver piping up the sides and an interior label from “Eaves Costume Company”. Comes with a letter of authenticity from Keeshan dated March 27, 1972 that states that he wore this old-style costume on television many hundreds of times during the 1960s. He goes on to state that “this is the very first one we’ve given up, and we don’t intend to make a practice of it, which should at least enhance its curiosity value.” This is a rare opportunity to own an original costume from one of the most long-running and famous children’s shows in television history.
