Description
Offered here is an authentic piece of fabric taken from a jacket once owned and worn by Henry Hill (1943–2012) — the real-life American gangster whose explosive story inspired Martin Scorsese’s Academy Award-winning classic Goodfellas (1990).
Henry Hill was a key figure in New York’s Lucchese crime family, rising through the ranks as a trusted associate before turning FBI informant and exposing one of the most powerful mob organisations in U.S. history. His life of fast money, danger, and betrayal became one of the most famous underworld tales ever told.
This genuine jacket fragment originates from a verified Henry Hill personal item, carefully preserved and presented as a tangible connection to the man behind the legend. It represents a unique fusion of true-crime history and Hollywood mythology, offering collectors an extraordinary opportunity to own a physical link to one of the most notorious gangsters of the 20th century.
