Harrison Ford’s [leather jacket](http://time.com/4274793/han-solo-star-wars-jacket/) from _Star Wars: The Force Awakens_ sold for $191,000 at auction this week.

Bidding on this “custom-made, one-of-a-kind” leather jacket signed by the actor began at $15,000 last month on the website IfOnly.com and lasted for about two weeks, attracting more than 50 bidders.

The sale benefits [FACES](http://nyulangone.org/give/funds/faces-finding-a-cure-for-epilepsy-and-seizures) (Finding a Cure for Epilepsy and Seizures), a non-profit that is part of NYU Langone Medical Center, where Ford’s daughter underwent treatment for epilepsy nine years ago. “She has not had a seizure since the day she left,” Mr. Ford said at a [March 7 fundraiser](http://www.upi.com/Entertainment%5FNews/2016/03/09/Harrison-Ford-discusses-daughters-epilepsy-Shes-my-hero/3331457525169/).

Ford was also quoted about the charity in a recent IfOnly.com news release: “This is a cause that’s near and dear to me, and unlike the cynical Han Solo, I’ve got a good feeling about this.”
