Seven framed concept and storyboard artworks from the production of Stewart Raffill's The Philadelphia Experiment. Navy sailor David Herdeg (Michael Pare) sabotaged the USS Eldridge in an attempt to prevent him and partner Jim Parker (Bobby Di Cicco) from being transported through hyperspace and into the distant future again by Dr. Jim Longstreet (Eric Christmas).
This set of artworks originated from the collection of producer Douglas Curtis. They depict several key sequences, including the titular "Philadelphia Experiment" on the Eldridge, Herdeg's travels through hyperspace, and his climactic attack on the ship. They are rendered in mixed media on board and mounted behind glass in custom frames. Two are signed by storyboard artist and Dark Horse Comics founder Paul Chadwick and dated "83," one is signed by production illustrator Richard Hescox, and one is signed by pre-production design consultant Andrew Probert. The set exhibits discolored boards, corner bending, and nicks to some of the frames. Dimensions: (largest) 22" x 15" x 1.5" (56 cm x 38.25 cm x 4 cm)
