A miniature "walking" skeleton puppets scene from Sam Raimi's horror-comedy sequel Army of Darkness. When a medieval army of the dead was awakened, sarcastic time-traveler Ash (Bruce Campbell) was called upon to stop it.

These puppets are constructed of hand-painted resin mounted to a wood-and-plaster base alongside a spinning wheel and wire mechanism, which turns to make three articulated skeleton puppets appear to walk. Also included is an additional loose skeleton's arm holding a battle axe. This lot is in fair overall condition with signs of wear throughout, including small holes on the top of the skeletons' skulls and discoloration from oxidation, and the piece remains fragile. Dimensions: 21" x 16" x 13" (53.25 cm x 40.5 cm x 33 cm)

Contains mechanical components; see notice in the Buyer's Guide

Estimate: $2,500 - 3,500
