A single-horned dinosaur puppet head from the production of Phil Tippett's stop-motion short film Prehistoric Beast. A docile monoceratops was hunted by a primeval carnivore throughout the film, the first ever produced by Tippett Studio. This lot comes from Tippett, who conceived of, supervised, and directed the film using the go-motion animation technique.

This resin monoceratops head is layered with hand-painted sculpted clay to appear weathered and wrinkly. It exhibits some chipping and the clay is delicate, but the head remains in good overall condition. Includes a letter of authenticity from Phil Tippett.

Dimensions: 5" x 3" x 3 1/2" (12.75 cm x 7.75 cm x 9 cm)

Estimate: $800 - 1,200
