Capt. Bo of the WTF co. Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Stumbled over this by accident, didn't know where to put it, so I thought here would be best. It's the best photo I've ever come across of the outfit, doesn't look half bad. http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.curatedobject.us/.a/6a00e54f9f8f8c88340147e15471f0970b-800wi&imgrefurl=http://www.curatedobject.us/the_curated_object_/2011/01/exhibitions-baton-rouge-cut-costume-and-the-cinema-the-louisiana-art-science-museum-the-curated-obje.html&usg=__GmQoVkHXuU9MdvEYrMzwE2_1rAE=&h=1197&w=800&sz=93&hl=en&start=33&zoom=1&itbs=1&tbnid=q-x7HGmnF5avwM:&tbnh=150&tbnw=100&prev=/images%3Fq%3D18th%2Bcentury%2Blouisiana%2Bart%26start%3D21%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DN%26gbv%3D2%26ndsp%3D21%26tbs%3Disch:1&ei=4ERLTZKyFcndgQfh6cXgDw Bo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain McCool Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Cool! Though I can point out numerous inaccuracies. Honestly, it looks like the only things that were part of the actual Jack Sparrow costume are the Frock coat and waistcoat. Otherwise, the hat's wrong, the shirt's wrong, the baldric's wrong, the breeches are wrong, the belts are wrong, the boots are wrong, the sash is wrong, and the sword is wrong. Still... epic cool boots... I have to wonder where they actually did come from... Captain Jack McCool, landlocked pirate extraordinaire, Captain of the dreaded prairie schooner Ill Repute, etc. etc. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ "That’s what a ship is, you know.

Capt. Bo of the WTF co. Posted February 4, 2011 Author Share Posted February 4, 2011 Yeah I didn't read the information through, I thought it was an actual authentic curated costume display piece, not an artisitic repro. My bad! Still a good lookin' outfit though. Bo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LadyBarbossa Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 I'm with McCool.... I don't think the outfit really is the real thing. I've seen a full costume from PotC 1 and it did not look like that. It's close. But, oh, well. It's the fault of the museum to show a costume that's inaccurate to the film. A nice find nevertheless, Bo. It's always nice to see the costumes displayed at various places. It indeed is art. ~Lady B Tempt Fate! an' toss 't all t' Hell!"

Captain McCool Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 I believe the waistcoat actually IS a screen-used Jack Sparrow item. At least, it certainly looks like one. I think the coat may be as well, except... the cuffs seem really narrow in comparison to Jack's... but otherwise the coat looks spot-on. Could be from a stunt costume.
