STAR WARS: THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK (1980)/STAR WARS: RETURN OF THE JEDI (1983) - C-3PO's (Anthony Daniels) Left Foot - A C-3PO's (Anthony Daniels) left foot from the second and third installments of Geroge Lucas's Star Wars trilogy, The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi. Daniels wore metallic gold-color feet as part of C-3PO's distinctive costume throughout the films as he aided the Rebel Alliance in their struggle to free the galaxy from the evil Galactic Empire.

C-3PO's costume evolved throughout the films, and this shoe style was created and used for the films that followed A New Hope. During that first production, the feet were fashioned with a fiberglass or vacuum-formed foot cover, which clipped over a canvas deck shoe worn underneath. This was upgraded in the sequels to a fully soled rubber foot cast around the actor's shoes. This rubber left foot is covered in metallic gold-color vinyl and features a back split for the foot and shoe to slide in. The vinyl finish exhibits scuffing and cracking, and in some areas, mainly around the ankle and the on the sole, the gold-color has faded to a silver-color or worn away, revealing the rubber beneath. Dimensions: 11.25" x 4.5" x 4" (28.5 cm x 11.5 cm x 10.25 cm)

Estimate: $9,000 - 18,000
