A chestnut brown with silver streaks wig custom made for Clark Gable for an unknown MGM production. The wig is made of human hair and hand tied one strand of hair at a time to a lace mesh with silk bands in the interior to give the appearance of a scalp. Studio wigs at the time were custom made and fitted to measure by the star's head and hairline. An MGM label reads "641" with the original box labeled "641 1850-7/8 Fall Med. Brown-grey sides C.Gable." The wig was acquired from MGM upon the closure of its hair and wig department. Accompanied by a canvas wig block. Categories:
