Proceeds from Lot 40 (Hammer plus premium) will benefit the Film & TV Charity, London.
This parachute segment was used in Director Michael Apted’s iconic Spy Film starring Pierce Brosnan, & the nineteenth in the James Bond series of films produced by EON Productions. The segment of black nylon is torn around the edges & depicts a white Russian Secret Services motif centrally. James Bond (Pierce Brosnan) hands the segment to Valentin (Robbie Coltrane) after extracting it from one of the parahawks that attempted to kill Elektra (Sophie Marceau). Valentin describes the motif as ‘Atomic Energy Anti Terrorist Unit’ & explains to Bond that it derives from the Russian Secret Services. This is believed to be one of the three (x3) screen-used prop versions used for the particular scene & was originally acquired by a member of the Film’s Production Crew upon the completion of filming. The prop measures approximately 19x16 inches overall & comes mounted inside a framed display with a descriptive plaque. The display measures approximately 26x23 inches overall & accompanies two colour stills. Some minor wear is present from use on set but the prop remains in otherwise fine condition.
