Note other lots in the auction may close on June 30th or July 1st. A prototype Lando Calrissian (Billy Dee Williams) skiff guard helmet from Richard Marquand's Star Wars: Return of the Jedi. Calrissian disguised himself as one of Jabba the Hutt's guards to help rescue Han Solo (Harrison Ford). Lando's disguise helmet was designed by Nilo Rodis-Jamero, who came up with the idea for a helmet with strips of leather covers when he saw a softball glove sitting on top of a co-workers head. The helmet is made of black vacuum-formed plastic with brown leather coverings, brass-color metal studs, and a brown and white resin face mask featuring pointed teeth. The inside of the mask features leather and foam padding. This version is similar to the final helmet worn on-screen, with some differences to coloring, detail, and finish. It is in good overall condition with some wear from age, including scuffing throughout and a few missing studs exposing screws underneath. Dimensions: 14" x 14" x 13" (35.56 cm x 35.56 cm x 33.02 cm) Estimate: $15,000 - 20,000
