: : : Hi, Abner:

: : : Greeting from Taipei!

: : : Did you ask Mr.Peter which lining was using in the films? I am curious for the descuss in last post and all my Wested jackets came with cotton linings.....

: : : Best regards,

: : I just assumed that the Raiders jacket had the satin lining and the others used cotton, but this could be a subject for further investigation...

: Hi all, sorry to jump in...
: In the `Making of Raiders...' video, the jacket worn by Harrison Ford appears to have the cotton lining, it's a really dull brown material. Now, in Last Crusade, if you look at the lining in the scene with Indy and Henry Sr. on the motorcycle, just before they decide to go back to Germany, the lining of the jacket is fine and shiny, just like a satin lining. Am I imagining things?

No, I see the same thing you do in LC, but I don't have the Making of Raiders video. The problem is that film or video and the lighting can render different fabrics differently than we expect to see them, so it's not a very accurate way to judge. We'll have to ask Peter which was used (maybe both since they made so many jackets).

Cheers,
Abner
