A City phone booth sign from the Wachowskis' sci-fi action film The Matrix. City signs were located around the top of public phone booths, which were used by freedom fighters from the real world to quickly exit the Matrix. Trinity (Carrie-Anne Moss) notably sprinted into a booth to pick up a ringing phone moments before Agent Smith (Hugo Weaving) drove a truck into the structure during the film's opening sequence.

The green sign is made of acrylic and features the word "City" in white. It is designed to be placed in front of a light box to achieve an illuminated appearance. A keypad emblem displaying 12 buttons is situated to the right of the text. The lot shows signs of production use, including scratches, minor marks, small chips to the green finish and yellow glue remnants on the text. Dimensions: 16 cm x 58.5 cm x 0.3 cm (6 1/4" x 23" x 1/4")

Estimate: £2,000 - 3,000 Ω
