A Rebel fleet trooper vest from George Lucas' Star Wars: A New Hope. The Rebel Alliance wore vests throughout the film, including scenes aboard the Tantive IV corvette while protecting Princess Leia (Carrie Fisher), and on Yavin IV, both before the assault on the Death Star and during the medal ceremony.

Designed by Oscar-winning costume designer John Mollo and manufactured by A.E. Bickel and Co. for Bermans & Nathans, who provided costumes and accessories for the production, this pocketed and pouched black vest is made of a Teredo poly-cotton blend. In line with Lucas' vision for the Star Wars universe, this vest has no fastenings along the front, and some pockets have tab closures, while others have Velcro closures. The vest exhibits fraying along the seams and fading to the internal label.

Estimate: £5,000 - 10,000 M
