A screen-matched Jumanji game board from Joe Johnston's family adventure film Jumanji. Shoemaking heir Alan Parrish (Robin Williams) was sucked into the magical survivalist board game Jumanji and later freed by Peter Shepherd (Bradley Pierce), only to be forced to continue playing his game from 26 years before.

Based on Chris Van Allsburg's children's picture book, Jumanji overtook Pixar's Toy Story's Number 1 box office slot and became a critical success, spawning numerous sequels, an animated series, and an actual board game published by Milton Bradley.

As the components were interchanged from shot to shot, various parts of this production-made game board screen match to scenes in the film, including when young Shepherd was turned into a monkey as punishment for trying to cheat the game, when the rules fade in while Alan is stuck in the floor, and when Alan ultimately wins the game in the climactic scene.

This jungle-themed rectangular game board is constructed of resin, affixed with a green glass orb, and set into the center of a dense rubber and metal case painted to look wooden and affixed with carved wooden animal details. Four replica resin pieces in the shapes of a gray elephant, a green monkey, a white rhinoceros, and a black crocodile are also included in the foam-padded side slots where the game's instructions are printed in red and black ink, and the token covers were added for display purposes.

This board has come loose from the case and exhibits other signs of use, including exposed rubber throughout and damage to the top of the rhinoceros, but it remains in good overall condition. Dimensions (board): 16.5" x 25.25" x 2" (42 cm x 64.25 cm x 5 cm); (pieces, each) 1" x 1" x 1.5" (2.5 cm x 2.5 cm x 4 cm)

Estimate: $75,000 - 150,000
