A limited-edition replica of Francisco Scaramanga's (Christopher Lee) golden gun from Guy Hamilton's The Man with the Golden Gun. James Bond (Roger Moore) traced Scaramanga by the golden bullets he shot from the titular weapon.
Created by Factory Entertainment, this exacting 1:1 scale gold-plated replica is designed to be assembled from separate components in the same manner as the original prop. It consists of an unscrewable fountain pen barrel, a cigarette lighter main body, a cigarette case grip, and a flexible cuff-link trigger, as well as a golden-color bullet engraved "007." Also included are a metal-plated display base hand-numbered "036" of 1,000; a plastic pistol stand; an information booklet labeled "007"; a sheet of schematics for the gun; and the gun's original foam-lined cardboard packaging. The packaging exhibits extensive tearing and bending, while the gun exhibits some scuffing from handling. Dimensions: (gun) 9.5" x 0.75" x 5.25" (24 cm x 2 cm x 13.5 cm)
Estimate: $3,500 - 7,000
