Note other lots in the auction may close on June 30th or July 1st. A prototype Sankara stone from Steven Spielberg's action-adventure sequel Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom. Indiana Jones (Harrison Ford) fought to return the five sacred Sankara Stones to Mayapore before they fell into Mola Ram's (Amrish Puri) clutches. Two styles of stones were made for the film including semi-translucent, illuminating hero versions and non-illuminating resin versions made primarily for stunt sequences and long shots. This opaque, amber-color molded resin prototype stone is textured to appear ancient, and is marked on the underside with the letter "A." It is similar to the final non-translucent stones seen in the film, but missing the distinctive horizontal white stripes. It is in good overall condition with some chips and scuffing from age. Dimensions: 4" x 4" x 7" (10.25 cm x 10.25 cm x 18 cm) Estimate: $1,500 - 2,500
