Jason Voorhees' (C.J. Graham) stunt hockey mask from Tom McLoughlin's slasher sequel Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives. Jason wore his mask throughout the film as he terrorised teenagers and the police at Camp Forest Green. As the budget for the film was larger than previous entries, a total of 12 masks were made: 11 for filming and one for the post-production intro shot of Jason. This vacuum-formed plastic mask was made for stunt work and distance shots, and was also later used in the production of Friday the 13th The Game (2017), when it was scanned for reference and colour matching.
The mask has been intentionally distressed, with remnants of stage blood on the front, and features "9" handwritten on its interior, which is also autographed by Graham in black ink. This mask originated from Graham's collection and is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity signed by the actor, as well as behind-the-scenes photos of the masks on set. Dimensions: 25.5 cm x 22 cm x 11.5 cm (10" x 8 3/4" x 4 1/2")
