Linda's (Betsy Baker/Denise Bixler) necklace and screen-matched gift box from Sam Raimi's The Evil Dead and Evil Dead II. In both films, Ash Williams (Bruce Campbell) gifted his girlfriend Linda a necklace during their first night at the cabin.

This lot originates from the personal collection of special effects artist Tom Sullivan. It consists of a necklace from Evil Dead II and a box from The Evil Dead. Production created two gift boxes for the film: one for the shot of Ash giving Linda her necklace, and a second, slightly different one created after that box was lost during production for additional pick-up shots. This box - the second one made and the source of a continuity error between shots - screen-matches to the close-up insert in which Linda (Betsy Baker) opens it.

The necklace features a small metal magnifying glass pendant painted silver-color over gold-color and a matching silver-color metal chain. The teal cardboard box features red hearts, pink flowers, and green leaves painted onto it and white tissue paper inside. The pendant exhibits chipping in the silver-color paint and some scratching on the lens, while the box exhibits wear to the edges, a tear on the bottom, and staining. Dimensions: (boxed) 2.5" x 3.5" x 1" (6.5 cm x 9 cm x 2.75 cm)

Additional Provenance: Letter of Authenticity from Tom Sullivan.

Estimate: $4,000 - 8,000
