We have always confirmed that the jacket worn by Marlon Brando was our style #618. After 50 years we can really only comment on what has been told to the next generation of the Schott family based on what jacket he wore. We do know the 613 & the 618 were very close in styling and for a time period the the 618 also had a star on each epaulet. The 613 had no snaps on the collar and the original 618 did have collar snaps. On Marlon Brando's jacket the collar does has snaps and it also has stars on the epaulets. We know his jacket was modified by the Embroidery of the name Johnny on the left chest of his jacket. The costume department could have also added the stars to the epaulets, but we do not think they would have added the snaps to the collar, therefore we feel that the jacket worn by him is the 618.
