Ledger died at the age of 28 from an accidental overdose in January, 2008. He was subsequently awarded a posthumous Oscar for his portrayal of the Joker in the Batman blockbuster The Dark Knight.
The T-shirt features a photograph of a faintly smiling Ledger posing with a skateboard by the Los Angeles River. It was taken in 2004, the year he was filming the hit Brokeback Mountain.
“Heath loved skateboarding and wanted to do a shoot he enjoyed”, said Ben Watts, the older brother of actress Naomi Watts and a New York-based photographer.
“(It was) a really enjoyable day and definitely one to remember. At one stage we were towing him with a car going like 40 miles per hour (64 kilometres per hour) through the L.A. river, it was amazing”, Watts said.
The T-shirt, which is being sold for charity, was a collaboration between Watts and Ledger’s designer sister Elana Rosa to commemorate the star’s well-known love of T-shirts.
“He actually had his own shirt line so I am sure he would be psyched to have a pic of him on a great day skateboarding, remembering who he was,” Watts added.
Proceeds from sales of the shirt will benefit Heath Ledger’s favourite charities, including a scholarship fund in his name.
