GHOSTBUSTERS (1984) - Stuart Ziff Collection: Production Binder of Printed Storyboard Copies - A production binder of printed storyboard copies from Ivan Reitman's supernatural comedy Ghostbusters. This lot comes from the collection of Ghost Shop creature effects supervisor Stuart Ziff. It consists of a production binder labeled "GHOSTBUSTER'S STORYBOARDS [sic]" containing 128 pages of storyboard printed on yellow and pink paper. The binder has five manila dividers labeled including "Ghost Jail," "LB - Library," and "Onion Head." Some of the pages exhibit creases and discoloration from age. Dimensions: 10.5" x 11.5" x 1.5" (26.75 cm x 29.25 cm x 4 cm)

This lot comes from the collection of effects pioneer Stuart Ziff. Upon moving to Edlund's Entertainment Effects Group (later renamed Boss Film Studios) in 1983, Ziff headed the 50-person "Ghost Shop" responsible for the groundbreaking demonic special effects in Ivan Reitman's comedy classic Ghostbusters. Numerous ghosts and spectral phenomena created for the picture, including the Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man's costume, immediately landed in the American pop culture lexicon, where they've remained for nearly four decades. Propstore is proud to offer never-beforeseen production materials from Stuart Ziff's pioneering work on Ghostbusters, alongside other one-of-a-kind memorabilia from his 40-plus-year career as a Hollywood pioneer.

Estimate: $2,000 - 4,000
