A meerschaum pipe from Jon Turteltaub's action adventure National Treasure. Ben Gates (Nicolas Cage), Riley Poole (Justin Bartha) and Ian Howe (Sean Bean) discovered the pipe in the frozen wreckage of the ship Charlotte at the beginning of the film, and Gates used the stem of the pipe and his own blood to reveal a hidden message. The pipe was then used as a key to unlock the ship's treasure room.

The pipe is made predominantly of resin and is intentionally distressed to look like aged meerschaum. It has some wear from production use and age, with scuffing, scratches and remnants of stage blood on the stem. The lot is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Disney. Dimensions: 27 cm x 4 cm x 7.5 cm (10½" x 1½" x 3")
