This is a Smith and Wesson Custom Hunter 44 Magnum Revolver used by Kurt Russell in the 1990 Film "Escape from L.A.". It has a plugged barrel, which renders it a prop, and is in good condition. It carries the serial number PCH02xx. The gun has been modified from the original for use on this production. This prop gun has been engineered not to shoot bullets, and is therefore not a "firearm" as defined by federal law. However, you must be 21 years of age to own this gun. As it was originally a gun, and has a serial number, you must observe any Federal, State or Local Laws regarding taking possession of this prop gun, including any paperwork or waiting period.

NON-FUNCTIONING PROP - NOT AN ACTUAL FIREARM! This is it folks - one of the rarest, coolest sci-fi weapon props around. Snake Plissken's modified Mac 10 Machine Pistol. The base piece of this prop is an all-metal Mac 10 non-gun with fully-functional auto/semi-auto setting, working bolt & trigger and extended removable clip. A custom-machined (mock) silencer twists onto the barrel and is removable. Atop the silencer is a working Cosco long-range scope with accurate mounts. It is a one-of-a-kind, and I have never seen any other Plissken gun replica other than the old Marco Enterprises abortion molded from a squirtgun! So if you are an EFNY fan, have a Snake Plissken costume or just want to chain the president to a wall and take potshots at him like Isaac Hayes in the movie, then this is the prop for you!

Avco-Embassy Pictures was all hyped about their July 10, 1981 release of ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK. Any why not? It was from John Carpenter, the director of the phenomenally successful HALLOWEEN. It had a huge budget of over 7 million dollars. And it had a great cast - Kurt Russell, Ernest Borgnine, Le Van Cleef, Issac Hayes, Season Hubkley, and Adrienne Barbeau. They printed a large 12-sided mailer which was sent to theater owners around the country, inviting them to begin bidding to play the film. This rare piece comes with a letter from Avco-Embassy, and is a collector's item for all Carpenter fans, particularly of this cult film classic. 1997 has come and gone, and New York is not only NOT a prison, the crime rate is lower than ever. Guess the movie scared everybody straight.

Lobby Lightbox Mylar for "VAMPIRES". A Mylar Lightbox Advertisement Collectible. It is a 5 inch x 25 inch mylar (polyester film) that is designed to go in a lightbox in the theatre lobby prior and during the screening of the film. It's purpose is to show what's playing in a particular auditorium and sometimes has "showtimes". As the *PIC shows it is opaque enough to view without a lightbox, but in the dark theatre lobby the lightbox enhances the graphics because the sleeve is translucent. This, of course, is a unique collectable. Not all theatre's use these mylars; somewhat rare!
