Jordy Verrill's (Stephen King) broken meteorite from George A. Romero's Creepshow. In the segment "The Lonesome Death of Jordy Verrill," Jordy ill-advisedly made contact with a mysterious meteorite by pouring water onto it and breaking it open, exposing him to a grass-like alien lifeform that consumed both his house and his body until he could no longer function.

Written by Stephen King, Creepshow was an homage to the 1950s horror comics, such as Tales from the Crypt. To capture the comic-like nature of the media, Romero hired Tom Savini to replicate the effects for film.

Originating from a crew member, this foam meteorite is sculpted and textured to appear rock-like with its center exposed and craggy from being broken open. It is hand-painted in various shades of yellow, green, gray, with light-orange spotting to give it an alien, albeit organic, appearance. It exhibits chipped paint and foam, exposing the interior material, as well as a buildup of grime in the fine crevices from storage. Dimensions: 10" x 10" x 6" (25.5 cm x 25.5 cm x 15.25 cm)

Estimate: $7,000 - 14,000
