Our expert's notes

A pair of Harry’s (Kevin Peter Hall) insert legs from William Dear’s family comedy Harry and the Hendersons. These pieces were created for use by production to puppeteer Harry’s feet and toes in close-up shots. Made to be worn on the arms, the pieces feature metal arm braces, palm handles and four finger rings that control movements in the toes. The creature’s leg mechanics are housed in foam and finished with a fur stocking and foam latex skin. The foam latex feet have been painted and detailed with hand-punched hair to appear realistic. Due to age, the foam latex skin has dried with the attached finger controls best left unused. The skin on both feet has also cracked and deteriorated in several areas, leaving the lot in delicate condition. Dimensions: 7” x 17” x 34” (18 cm x 43 cm x 86 cm) each
$1,000-1,500 *Estimated sale price; sold without reserve
