Posted: Wed Dec 28, 2011 12:07 pm Post subject: Zhoras screen used costume |
|
|
HI All
What a fantastic Christmas, i am happy to announce that i am the happy (but now skint) owner of the screen used costume that will now go with the spiked boots i already have. They were on the Profiles in History auction last week.
Yab adab adoo !!!!
Image and description from Profiles in History
Joanna Cassidy “Zhora” coat, bra and gun-shot effects leotard from Blade Runner - (Warner Bros., 1982) Designed by Michael Kaplan for Joanna Cassidy as the runaway replicant “Zhora” in Ridley Scott’s classic science-fiction noir-thriller Blade Runner. Consists of transparent plastic jacket, “blood” stained and bullet-holed skin-tone body stocking, and effects-distressed version of leather bondage-type bra. Used in the death sequence as Harrison Ford, the replicant hunter “Deckard” guns her down in a crowded shopping area, and the hits match the blood in the shoot where she received the second impact. Labeled with the costume designer’s name, character name, and “Bullet Hit #2”. In the original plastic bag and coat hanger directly from the set and consequent storage, untouched until cataloging for this sale. Condition remains virtually identical to distressed use on screen. A graphic and memorable artifact from the magic of movie-making. _________________ More human than human |

Fantastic score!
It'll be nice to to see most of the outfit back together. I guess you are only missing the wire/leather bra piece now?
I demand copious photos once it arrives!

I had to do a quick check because since you mention it there was not a picture of the bra, i can confirm that it is complete and there is a seperate picture of it in the catalogue.

Awesome!...I forgot to look through PiH's latest auction catalog to see if there was any BR stuff in there. Yes please post some pics up here when you can. You are slowly putting together the best BR museum there is. I only wish we lived at least on the same side of the pond so I could visit it
Congratulations,
Andy |

Hi there !
Congratulations ! I was pretty sure it was you ! I tried to have it but stopped to bid half the way… you are such lucky man… Was it you for the BR script too ?
My best

Hi Lionel
I did not bid on the script as i needed every penny for the costume. I do already have a couple of scripts and a piece of the cityscape so it was not a problem. One thing does hit harder than i thought and that is the whopping 23% fee added on for PIH, $200 secure postage and then another 20% customs on the total getting it through here in the UK. I havent worked the total out exactly yet because i think i might choke.
I am considering on whether to fly to LA to collect in person as the flights would be quarter the price of the import duty.
Did you see the couple of new vids i posted on youtube? There are more to come.

Yes, I hate bidding on profiles (or HA or Live) because you have to think it will cost you a fortune of taxes…etc. I bought recently BR photos on Premiere and they asked me $95 for the shipping (for 2 pictures !), I almost fainted… I don't understand why we can have a shipment quote BEFORE bidding…
I didn't see your videos, do you have a link ?
And I asked a question about Mentor Hueber's drawing I bought recently, if you could also have an idea :

Yes, that's why I never bid on any auction...it's the "after the auction" that kills me |
