HANK WILLIAMS` FRINGED WESTERN SHIRT: (1923-1953), American country singer and songwriter. A superb, rare - and quite appropriate - relic, an original vintage red and tan Western-style shirt owned and worn by the legendary country singer Hank Williams! The shirt is made of heavyweight gabardine, with blue cord trim, suede fringe at the shoulders and white pearl snap buttons. It was originally acquired from Audrey Williams to be displayed with a collection of celebrity ephemera at the Countryland Park, a Country and Western-themed hotel and casinoto be constructed at the site of the old El Rancho casino in Las Vegas. However, when financing for the venture fell through, the collection was dissembled and sold at the Countryland Museum Auction. With a copy of a certificate of authenticity from The Odyssey Group stating that the shirt was original obtained from Audrey Williams, and the a copy of the original Countryland auction listing. Bears a few tiny pinholes at right tan panel and a light yellow stain thereon, very slight soiling to cuffs, otherwise in very good condition. A rare and evocative relic! $3,000-5,000
