Seven hand-drawn John Bell weapon concept illustrations from the production of Barry Sonnenfeld's sci-fi comedy Men in Black. K (Tommy Lee Jones) and Agent J (Will Smith) wielded a variety of high-tech weapons as agents for the Men in Black.

This lot consists of seven concept illustrations by John Bell, one of the early concept designers who helped develop the film's signature retro style, four of which are signed "J. Bell" and dated "94" or "95", for weapons such as the "Mouth Activated Nitrogenizer", "NumbDumb Gas", and "Edna". The set is rendered in mixed media on brown illustration paper, and remains in excellent overall condition with minor edge wear throughout. Dimensions (each): 23 cm x 30.5 cm (9" x 12")
