Edward Scissorhands' (Johnny Depp) insert hand from Tim Burton's fantasy romance Edward Scissorhands. An awkward boy with scissor-like fingers, Edward used his blades to turn an ice angel into a snow flurry for Kim (Winona Ryder), the girl he loved.

The hand-fabricated metal blades on this hand were originally created as mold masters; the molds made from them were used to produce the urethane blades Depp wore throughout the film. The practical SFX team then took the metal blades and built them onto the pole-rig for use in insert shots of the blades actually chopping things such as ice.

This right insert hand consists of a rubber, resin and leather glove mounted on one side of a T-shaped metal armature to a wooden base. It features a series of metal and resin bladed elements of various shapes and colors by the finger openings. At the openings is a cylindrical detail which allows for the appendages to be moved up and down. The thumb section is inset with a foam rubber thumb and a spring accent stretched from the top of one of the scissor blades to the back of the glove's wrist. Also included is a letter of authenticity from the film's mechanical department coordinator, Richard Landon. The glove exhibits extensive wear and aging on the foam rubber element. Dimensions: 36" x 36" x 24" (91.5 cm x 91.5 cm x 61 cm)

Contains mechanical components; see notice in the Buyer's Guide.

Estimate: $30,000 - 50,000
