A replica of Doc Holliday's single action Army handgun from George P. Cosmatos' Tombstone, autographed by star Val Kilmer. Holliday (Kilmer) carried and wielded his handgun throughout the film, along with his Colt Lightning, most notably during the shootout against Billy Clanton (Thomas Haden Church) who accused Doc of seeing double due to being drunk.
Upon release, Tombstone famously eclipsed its direct competitor, Lawrence Kasdan's Wyatt Earp, to become among the highest-grossing Westerns of all time. It is today recognized as a modern masterpiece in the storied genre. For his portrayal of the legendary gunslinger - a role today considered to have been among his finest, in part due to his signature line, "I'm your Huckleberry" - Kilmer received dual MTV Movie Award® nominations for Best Male Performance and Most Desirable Male.
This lot consists of a replica metal Single Action Army quickdraw model handgun with a 4.75" barrel, a six-revolver chamber, and a glossy resin handgrip. The handgrip features Kilmer's autograph in black ink with the inscription "Doc" beside it. The lot shows evidence of minor wear consistent with handling and age, includinscuffing around the revolver chamber. Dimensions: 11" x 2" x 5" (28 cm x 5 cm x 12.75 cm)
Additional Provenance: A Certificate of Authenticity card from Celebrity Authentics featuring an image of Val Kilmer autographing the handgun.
