GUEST: This coat belonged to my mother. I happened to inherit it. She used to work in fashion advertising design back in Chicago, and she was a big fan of Disney. And this coat was the centerpiece in her wardrobe and her collection for years and years and years. My guess is probably the '70s, late '70s, early '80s. Just because I remember it, growing up as a child.
APPRAISER: Well, she didn't buy it in the '70s.
GUEST: Ah.
APPRAISER: Because it wasn't made until the early '80s.
GUEST: Oh, okay.
APPRAISER: And actually, one of the big signs that tell us is this great big sleeve with the padded shoulder.
GUEST: Right.
APPRAISER: That didn't come in till the '80s, and it was a hot commodity in the '80s. The look, actually, the padded shoulder, came from the military look of the '40s...
GUEST: Oh.
APPRAISER: ...where the women had the large padded shoulders, like Joan Crawford. This coat is high fashion for the '80s...
GUEST: (chuckling): Okay.
APPRAISER: ...with a real Disney swing, and I love it.
GUEST: Oh, yeah.
APPRAISER: I love the fabric. I love the pink. And it is not real fur, it's just a faux fur.
GUEST: Okay.
APPRAISER: It's French fabric. It's from Walt Disney Productions. It's a great design. It's really soft, isn't it?
GUEST: Yeah, it's very soft.
APPRAISER: Have you ever worn it yourself?
GUEST: I have, yeah. A couple of times, yeah.
APPRAISER: Oh, I can see you in it. (laughs) Well, I've never seen another version in pink, and when you pulled it out of the bag, I was just blown away by it, because it's just so insanely wonderful. Currently, in the vintage market, they're selling anywhere from $500 to $800 each, so...
GUEST: Oh, wow. Good, wow, that's great.
