Seen in FBDO
The Gumby and Pokey t-shirt is best seen at 00:12:36 in Ferris Bueller's Day Off. Jeanie has just been told that Ferris may donate his eyes to Stevie Wonder when another classmate happily greets her in the hallway: “Hi, Jeanie!”
As Jeanie mutters a disgruntled retort – “Shut up” – the girl turns briefly toward the camera showing her Gumby and Pokey t-shirt worn under a black vest.
