This stetson was given by John Wayne to the previous vendor during a reception at Republic Pictures, Soho Square, London in February 1951. The lot is sold with two accompanying letters, one from the previous vendor detailing his introduction to John Wayne '... and during the course of conversation I remarked that I liked his stetson, which he was carrying, without hesitation he placed it on my head and said.. "you like it, you can have it..."', and a further letter from Gerald, A. Fernback, then Director of Publicity at Republic Pictures International Ltd.. verifying the occasion.
