A Chicago Sun-Times newspaper cover headlined "Wet Bandits" from Chris Columbus' Christmas comedy sequel Home Alone 2: Lost in New York. A newspaper blew onto the McCallister porch the night before Kevin's (Macaulay Culkin) trip to New York.

This production-made, color-printed cover headlined "'Wet Bandits' escape during prison riot" and featuring Harry (Joe Pesci) and Marv's (Daniel Stern) mugshots originated with Sun-Times marketing director Todd Galbate, who organized its printing by the Sun-Times' real presses for authenticity. Also included is a Letter of Authenticity from Galbate. The cover exhibits a vertical fold line, ink stains, and spine discoloration from production and age. Dimensions: 12" x 14.75" (30.5 cm x 37.5 cm)

Estimate: $2,000 - 4,000
