Allan Quatermain's (Sean Connery) hero live-fire Winchester Model 1873 lever-action rifle from Stephen Norrington's Victorian superhero film The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. US Secret Service agent Tom Sawyer (Shane West) had a pair of lever-action Winchester Model 1873s, and gifted one to Quatermain. The two heroes used them throughout the film, most notably while chasing Mr Hyde (Jason Flemyng) through the streets and across the rooftops of Paris.

This beautifully constructed rifle has a walnut buttstock and forearm, and the receiver exhibits an intricate floral pattern etched into the metal. A small plaque on the underside of the receiver reads "Engraved by Shaun A. Banks For The Film The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen" and a US one-dollar coin is adhered to the right side of the buttstock. The rifle's serial number is "52388".

There is some wear from production use, most notably some dents on the buttstock. The firearm is categorised as Section 5 under UK law and is not currently deactivated. Dimensions: 92.5 cm x 4 cm x 14 cm (36.5" x 1.5" x 5.5")
