The former child star Corey Feldman has received back his endearing jacket from the 1989 film "Dream A Little Dream". It was stolen from him when he went out one night two years ago in Los Angeles.

The tacky leather jacket was snatched while he was spending his leisure at the House of Blues in 2011. In a lucky coincidence, the jacket was found in a Boston flea market, and the new owner of the jacket wanted to give it back to him, for a few things in return.

The 41-year-old celebrity was requested to fly the man from Boston to Los Angeles, pay for his stay at the Andaz Hotel on Sunset Blvd, send a 6-foot woman to be his "bodyguard" during the stay, bring him on stage during a concert in L.A, and to donate to a charity of his choice—OneFundBoston.org, to help the victims of Boston Marathon tragic bombing.

Feldman gained his fame from "Gremlins," "The Goonies," "Stand By Me," and many other films. He and Corey Haim, named "The Two Coreys" were casted together in a slew of movies, including the famous "Dream A Little Dream." He co-starred with Meredith Salenger in the film.

As a musician as well, the famed movie-TV actor released an album called "Former Child Actor" in 2002.
