Stanley Ipkiss (Jim Carrey) recovered the Mask of Loki, the Norse god of mischief, which transformed Ipkiss into his cartoonishly powerful and mischievous alter ego, the Mask. The film opens with a shot of the Mask of Loki floating up to the surface after being released from an underwater treasure chest. This foam mask was created for the shots of the mask floating to the surface. It is cast in a lightweight foam to float and hand-painted dark green and textured to resemble aged wood, with a gray vertical strip simulating studded metal along the forehead and nose with the letter "L" at the top. The mask is in good overall condition with some wear from production and age, including chipping to the paint. Dimensions: 9" x 7" x 4" (23 cm x 18 cm x 10.25 cm) This lot comes from the collection of renowned special effects artist Tom "Brooklyn" Bellissimo. A letter of authenticity from Bellissimo is included. Estimate: $10,000 - 15,000
