The Revenge of the Creature - A priceless piece of movie history, this is the extremely rare, very iconic, only remaining creature mask, known as "The Gill-man", from the 1955 feature film, "The Revenge of the Creature," (sequel to "The Creature from the Black Lagoon"). This hero mask is made out of foamed latex and is hand painted. This full head mask was hand crafted by legendary Bud Westmore and worn by stuntman, Tom Hennesy, who almost drowned during the filming of this very popular sequel and who used this mask under water during filming. The gills open and close. There are two hoses for air through the gills and mouth. It is fully in tact and in pristine condition. This mask has been handed down through the generations of the Westmore Family, and is an icon of the golden age of horror movies. It may be THE last surviving original mask from this era! Be the only collector to own this rare piece of history, and be sure to join the Westmore family as they receive their first star on the Hollywood walk of Fame in October. (WSM3000)
