The costume was originally gifted to Mark Pollard after the production of "You Only Live Twice" wrapped. Pollard was the assistant voice coach on the production and worked exclusively with Tetsuro Tanba who played Tiger Tanaka. Tanba insisted that he was trained by a male voice coach throughout filming resulting in Pollard having no time to work with any of the other cast members.
