One Last Thing with Damon Wayans: The Iconic Costume He Kept from In Living Color (Exclusive)

Damon Wayans took some memorabilia from his comedy sketch series In vivid color which premiered in 1990 and aired for five seasons.

“I have my Homey D. Clown suit and my Men on Films hats, all in a little man cave,” the comedian/actor, 64, tells PEOPLE in this week’s issue. “My house is my house, so all the stuff is in there. And if I need to stroke my ego, I’ll look at it.”
