This is a polaroid photo that is known as a "continiuty photo". It is taken on the set to record what the actor was wearing for a particular scene. It is important to document this information in case the production company needs to go back for reshoots, as they will want to ensure "continuity" from one shot to the next. They are also used to document things like the actors hair style, makeup, blood stains, etc.
