Friday The 13th Part 3 Crew Jacket
For those who are unfamiliar, crew members are given the opportunity while working on films to obtain crew jackets to commemorate their time working on a production. For the most part, these jackets are sold, not given away, to crew at the end of filming. At that point, most people who purchase a jacket only wear them a few times and then store them away. Every so often fans are treated to images of these jackets as they are taken out of the mothballs and sold at auctions. Such is the case now with a Friday The 13th Part 3 crew jacket!
We have highlighted a few crew jackets from Friday The 13th Part 7: The New Blood and Friday the 13th Part8: Jason Takes Manhattan in the past for which there is some pretty cool designs. The Part 3 jacket, which is a windbreaker rather than a letterman jacket, utilizes the opening title effect from the 1980 film where the block lettering crashes through glass, but now it has Part III below the title! We like the design here as it shows the marketing department had not worked on the title we would later see on posters for promotion!
