Two items: Limited edition souvenir set of 12 hand-painted cast of heads of Jack Skellington from the film A Nightmare Before Christmas, entitled, “The Twelve Faces of Jack,” #274/275, set in a 14 x 17 ebonized mahogany shadow box, signed on the back in silver ink, “Tim Burton”; and an original prop bench, which was used in the filming of the movie, complete with a tag from Sotheby’s. In fine condition. Similar casts were created for use in the stop-motion animation process during the making of this film. Stop-motion animation is a cinematic technique where an inanimate object is photographed as a succession of still images and is manipulated slightly between frames. When the film is projected at the standard rate of 24 frames per second, the puppet appears to take on a life of its own. The prop bench, which is still equipped with the original wiring used to electrify the spider lights at each edge of the bench, is a true gem, bringing a little piece of the mystical atmosphere of Jack Skellington’s world into reality. These exceptionally unique items help bring one of Burton’s most acclaimed and beloved stop-animation productions to life.
